Not gonna lie. If there is not a high amount of exclusivity - even if I’m not a part of it, I won’t play. The feeling of “there is so much more out there” is very important to me.
It’s one of the turnoffs of retail. Everyone is transmogged, LFR gear looks similar or decent compared to Mythic. As far as I’m concerned, LFR should look like garbage and only the top tier gear should look amazing.
What this does is give the people doing LFR, the illusion of achievement. When in reality, they have so much further to go.
