The story and the cutscenes have absolutely no relevance to "what is going on".

This is what is "going on" for me in the game:

  • chatting with friends
  • partying with friends
  • killing monsters with friends
  • meeting new friends
  • interacting with people around town
  • exploring new areas with friends
  • taking on challenges with friends
  • creating an optimal character build that will help me kill stuff more easily
  • collecting rare items
Player-driven content > dev content

That all has absolutely nothing to do with the current joke of a storyline the game has right now that bears no actual consequence on my day-today activities.

Even if I was concerned about the storyline, incorporating Dark Matter into the game world is going to make a couple Leatherworking quests look a little strange. Oh the horror! This doesn't impact the main storyline or any of the other stories at all.
