Dang, sure are a lot of folks that would be entertained by watching grass grow! Every time I'm in Eureka, it's FULL of people.

Seriously, the hatedom this content has is friggin' hilarious. Eureka's not bad. Not bad at all. And I'm clearly not the only one to think so, since it's always highly populated. There may be some folks in there that hate it and are forcing themselves through it solely because there's something they want from it they can't get anywhere else, but I doubt that's enough to explain EVERYONE, or even MOST of the participants.

Even the (patently false) claim that there's nothing else to do in game isn't enough; if folks honestly hated it, they'd be playing another game instead, while they wait for new stuff to arrive. Heck, folks were doing that even before Eureka was a thing.

Detractors are simply going to have to accept that they are a vocal (very, very, very vocal) minority.
