Too frequently I see people working themselves up in this echo chamber declaring "the story is bad and the devs don't care" as if it's some objective fact (it's not), and then getting frustrated when it doesn't bring about change. I point out when someone's asking for a sweeping change to something, that's unlikely to happen when it's an opinion only shared by a very small group and would in the process alienate a much larger group.
The thing is, none of us know what the actual majority opinion is on the story.

Because none of us has talked with a majority of players.

So acting like those who don't like the story are the definite minority is wrong.

Some like the story, some don't like the story. Which portion is the minority is unknown and likely will be unknown for the rest of time. There will be things that would indicate such things, but nothing that we players can access that would tell us anything definite. And I doubt even SE would have data enough to prove which side is the minority.
