And the achievement makes no specification. When LFR was added, and the achievement remained the same, and Blizzard said nothing on it–
Honestly, I don’t think it would be worth trying to explain it to you, who says content that requires a group isn’t group content.
If they admitted to doing something that derives a cost impact to their consumers in a non-advertised way they could probably be subject to refunding that.
Saying nothing always better than saying the wrong thing.
They legally aren’t fyi. They had to list a delivery date to offer pre-sales in certain countries/europe. There’s a delivery timeline that they have to meet but it’s not actually December 23.
They have to launch by december, either way though. Agreements for these things were made well in advance. Consequences happen if they don’t meet them.
I cleared normal fated Tuesday night in a straight pug in less than two hours. This line of thought ‘I don’t have time’ while you sit in queue for 40 minutes for LFR then take an hour or longer per wing is just absurd and intellectually dishonest, tbh.
The achievement was made with only three modes on fated. When LFR was added yes the achievement should have been changed but it was obviously missed until peppermint made their post brining it to the attention of Blizz and it was then changed.
LFR does not take long as a healer. Pugs can vary greatly.
edit: Especially pugs with constant smoke breaks, people being drunk, having to go off and do something for 15+ minutes. Heck I had guild runs like that all the time.
