To miss that sarcasm, that’s some special comprehension skills.
Please make a list of paid service games that are not dead and gone that have removed content that hasn’t been added to a store for $$$ or completely gone.
Might wanna look up the definition of sarcasm, bud. Or work on effectively conveying better via text.
No where did the OP suggested he wanted “everything now” for you to “sarcastically” lampoon and parody it.
Don’t know specifics, but there are games that have launch customs and things like that you can’t obtain later.
When they advertise this is going way this is going away why should it comeback because someone else wants your shiny stick
The thing is, some people subbed and supported the game during those expansions precisely because of those rewards. And they deserve them, as they’re basically the expansion participation trophies and a “thank you” from Blizz.
I ask this all the time in these threads, but why are folks who didn’t even bother to pay for the game back then entitled to such a thing?
“I just came back after 5 years away from the game and it’s outrageous that I have to play more than 2 weeks to get everything I want before quitting again for another 5 years.”
^^ People are tired of seeing this sentiment on the forum. That’s why people are upset at people who exhibit it, OP.

I agree with what he’s saying. You said it yourself.
So why are people breaking their backs over this?

oh buddy I am!
Why are people still able to farm raid mounts in every expansion. Why are you wearing mythic xmog gear when you didn’t raid mythic. Why are certain raid mounts on the black market for gold if they are so special. I have a friend new to the game who was able to get invincible before me and he started the game at the end of legion.

Interesting take, TBH, I didn’t think of that. I see the point you’re making. And I am definitely not opposed to it.
entitled
That said, I wouldn’t throw around this.Accusing someone of entitlement is pretty harsh, judgemental and socially lacking FWIW so I personally would avoid such language.
Which is what the OP was getting at. Why do members of this community think it’s okay to talk about other human beings in such a way? Anonymity?
At the end of the day, it’s just words, but still. Leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

Most other games don’t remove content. Thinking back on Everquest for example its been around at least 5 or 6 years longer than wow yet the only thing I can think of completely removed from the game would be the manastone that dropped in lower guk when the game first came out. Everything else is still there though including levels, stats, abilities, spells, etc.
I agree. Entitled people will just increase the lists of what they want over and over and you just have to deny them.
Expansion-exclusive content should stay that way, IMO.
Because Blizzard isn’t hellbent on making every single thing in the game exclusive. Just a small, select few choice rewards in the game out of literally thousands still available.

You speak out against me using the word “entitled” when it’s simply a statement and not an insult. But not against…
‘shrug’
It still stings today that I was literally 2 points away from realm first Pandaria mining lmao.
It certainly feels that way.
The real question is if it’s due to neglect or intentional. It could easily go either way, but I don’t think they care about how the community “feels” anymore so long as they keep feeding them money.
I actually have to wonder if they’ve shifted the design in this game around to better exploit “whales” (those who over-indulge in micro-transactions) rather than trying to increase the subscriber count.

I think Blizzard removing content is a huge mistake.
I think PvP mounts should be available after the season is over, just like how Mythic raid mounts remain available.
I think the Mage Tower shouldn’t have been removed. They should have added an achievement instead if you did it during Legion.
I think taking the brutosaur out of the game is silly.
Having said that, I still think it’s ridiculous how many people post on the forum with their “I quit for 5 years and just came back and it’s outrageous that I can’t get everything in 2 weeks before quitting again” mentality.
The salt flowed like water when I got herbalism, then got alchemy a few minutes later.
