You dont need the story.

[SturmChurro]

Oh but it very much happens, you can't mention that you skip the story anywhere not private without being snubbed sometimes by the majority of people replying to you.

It baffles me. You'd think the community would be more welcoming, but no "go play something else"... like, what? This is a themepark MMO there is so much more game for players to do and experience. Not liking the story doesn't mean a person won't like the game, and for someone to just tell players to "go play something" else needlessly discourages players from potentially enjoying this game.
