I don't buy that for a second. If you gave any raider truth serum (or a fifth of Wild Irish Rose), they'd probably tell you the story never meant anything to them. The only thing they liked about the Coil story was that they could say "We got to see the story and the commoners didn't". That's all. SE did everyone a service by making story mode Alexander, whether you want to admit it or not. The only negative you and others see is that your security blanket, exclusivity, was pulled out from under you.
