I see where you're coming from, but I don't think either of us can say much about what will and won't be in the game until the end without being part of the development team. What I'm saying (and said) is that according to my personal experience of the game, the story felt like it had a really good buildup to revenge, and that it is being written by some very meticulous and competent people, which makes me seriously doubt will fail to deliver an awesome punchline in the end. I also disagree with the 5% statement, because... being antagonized is exactly part of the revenge experience.
My disappointment was something of my own ignorance, expecting more story content present in the current version of the game.
