Unpopular Opinion: I think LFR should be Changed

I remember a time where LFG was not a thing and having actual social interaction was required in this game hence the MMO part of the genre. Slowly but surely, developers whether they intended it or not have remove social interactions over the years. Ever wonder why nobody talks in your dungeons or raids or anywhere outside a guild?

3%? What else has there been to do other than Raids, Dungeons, Arenas and Rated BG as end game content, like ever?

In a thread focused on Raid content, what are you lacking?

I can’t really explain to you what it is since it would require you knowing what a mmo used to be. There is a reason why getting full blue gear in classic means more then full 370 in bfa.

You have destroyed so much in your quest to keep up with other people. It seems lootboxes would only increase your enjoyment of the game.

I’ll be honest here friend.
I get a really perverse enjoyment out of your tears and your lost Master Loot.
Does that make me a bad person? (I certainly hope so)

I’ll have to go edit your name out.

Whats done is done, classic for one bfa for the other. Enjoy your plunder in your lonely world.

and your time would be better spend getting geared up and playing the game you seem to claim to enjoy.
Ive noticed that the ones crying the most about LFR certainly have used it a lot.
I also noticed that I cant see your info at all.
any reason for that?

I will and do.
Thanks

No point in playing for gear. I finished my mythic when I had the time to do them. A mmo and a lootbox are not one and the same you crave the later but seem to dislike the former.

Keep gaining your loot. I am sure mythic rewards will soon be yours the way things are heading. I wish you the best.

MoP LFR difficulty is where it should be. It was easier than normal raiding obviously, but also required following of mechanics and required players to pay attention.

You are completely twisting what I said. You said LFR is free loot. I said that it is no more free then heroic dungeons and the IL of LFR loot is so low as to be nearly irreverent. Do you understand that? You are complaining about a complete non-issue with LFR loot. Especially since it in no way impacts your heroic raiding.

Read the threads on this topic.
They dont give two squats about LFR itself.
They are crying because it drops loot.
Theyve said as much in this very thread.

If you believe so. I won’t argue matters of personal faith in the forums. If you believe the game has the same depth after lfr then before who am I to change your mind?

So adding two new difficulties = less depth to you?

There was more depth in getting your first dungeon set then there is in an entire expansions worth of lfr.

I don’t think there is much depth in running Strat Dead/Scholomance/UBRS over and over due to terrible drop rates.

Your right afking through a raid boss is where it is at. Of course you could do the fight but you have to try to die.

Now you are just being fallacious. The dungeons sets were phased out before LFR. Those sets were not even max level sets AND most of the pieces could be purchased.

Do you believe such depth of content could exist in the current game?

Lfr players will never met people and form guilds from doing dungeon runs to gear. Instead they will queue into their faceless and near automated runs.

I don’t think bfa can be changed. The game is no longer for me. You will have lfr ,warfront,and isles while I will have classic.

LFR has three reasons:

  1. Allows people learn skills and progress toward raiding normal and heroic (IF they chose to use it that way)
  2. Lets them experience and complete the required quests for the storyline (though I don’t agree that this is how content is gated for people who can’t participate in instances due to disabilities)
  3. It is the gym - it is a gym for any healer who wants to test their skills in basically what is the worst case scenario for any raid. Keeping an entire LFR alive by yourself is amusing if anything. For tanks and dps -it is a place to work out the kinks in things like keybinds, addons, talents, and numbers. If you aren’t using it to do that, you are missing out. You should’nt be working out your talents, keybinds, addons, or dps numbers during a guild raid. For a raid leader or potential raid leader - LFR is the ultimate test. If you can coach a bunch of LFR raiders through something like KJ or G’hunn - you can make it in normal.

Use LFR as a tool to be better.
