Why is "It's something to do" apparently a valid defense?

I think it depends on the criticism. If the criticism is "This takes too much effort, dumb it down for me" Then yeah, I'm going to start speaking up and telling the whiners to pipe down.

For the most part though, thats not the case, the arguments have been that the content is bland, uninspiring and isn't much different from relic quests that we have already done, not to mention the complaints about the delay. Trust me, if I saw someone with the attitude that you pose, I'd be the first to call them out.
