What other mmo would invest so much time in creating those lengthy story cutscenes? You can dislike the story or how they handled it I guess, but I for one felt it was well done, and certainly value their vision and expertise on the story over teenagers on the internet who likely cant even write a proper essay.
Lol. Clearly anyone whose opinions differ from yours are easily passed off as the prattling of mindless teenagers. The story telling is good but everything felt too convenient to me and concluded with far too many plot holes. Anyone with any expertise in writing knows that there is always room to improve something and that not everyone will feel that your choices with your story telling were good.

But moreover, with writing for a video game, some forms of good writing practices need to be sacrificed. I am speaking from experience here because I'm developing an RPG myself coming from a story writing background and there is almost no way you can tell a perfect story while still taking into account that gamers need to PLAY a game not just sit through a novel experience.

Regardless, let people enjoy their opinions. No need to shove your clearly superior tastes into other people's faces.
