I get it, you don't care about Halsin or the background of the Shadow Cursed Lands. But the game is not only made for neutral or evil characters obsessed with edgy grimdark motifs and cynicism. And quite frankly, showing the denizens of the forest before the land's corruption is interesting for many people, including druid players and archfey warlocks.
1. I object to your classification of me.
2. My suggestion is in line with what I consider to be a better storytelling angle for what's offered in Act II, not because I have some preference for grimdark or otherwise.
3. I accept that some folks might want a druid/fey viewpoint of what's going on. That's certainly fair. Nevertheless, I feel that part of the story was noticeably weak and didn't seem to accomplish what the writers wanted.
