either the GM is forcing this on others which doesn't seem to be the case, or this more of a player problem
It is the DM putting out certain story elements with false urgency and the players leaning into their character roles, only to get mired in plot that is more tedious than fun.
We like each other and enjoy spending time together, but we often aren't thrilled with the direction of the story.
Apologies for assuming and misunderstanding then. I get what you mean, if it's something other players are also bothered by it sounds like this should be discussed with the group. Is your GM the forever-gm, or are there other people that also run tables?
Because there are other GMs, but this GM is in the best position to host. What's more, the game is more Westmarches style, and the B-list players are sporadic. Its not a trivial thing to reboot.

That's where things get messy.
