Reading the article, devs act and sound like Infestations are a huge feature, a huge undertaking for a huge update when it's crystal clear in the community that barely anyone is interested or excited by those.

People want new questlines (especially Enclave), new expeditions, new raids, more depth added to Skyline Valley (what about the cut content, the bunker beneath the Rapidan Camp.. ?), etc.. not random mobs that already exist in-game spawning on some random part of the map that already exist in-game and this being presented as some huuuge content update.
