At least delay by a week. 2 weeks is a bit excessive. That way everyone has a opportunity to enjoy the story or other launch day content.
You don't make sense , if people are rushing to savage they don't care about the raid story + they can still watch the cutscene later . There is absolutly no point of delaying savage and they won't because its a bad idea , people who are asking for that don't do savage or barely months after the release of the patch.
I'm not a hardcore raider, but wanna share my perspective. I do care about the Raid Story, as do two other members of our Static, and of course you don't want to hold the group back and skip if you have to to start raiding, but rewatching the story later just isn't the same as the fights give you an idea of what will happen. (I often see the argument to look for another static then, but do you really want people to give up on a group that just clicks/friends and people with similar time schedules over this?)
This is the same mentality that results in statics forcing their members to start progging ASAP and skipping cutscenes to get there. You often get a minority of tryhards who dictate the agenda for the rest of the less highly strung members.
Hell I had members leave my FC when Seat of Sacrifice EX dropped because we wanted to clear it as an FC first, but they wanted to do it on day one, and didn't have the patience to "carry" us through it blind 3 days late. 3 days!
You've waited 9 months as it is, it won't hurt to wait another week, it's purely arbitrary.
If a group really clicks, especially if they're friends, why they can't they wait a few minutes for the people watching cutscenes? Why is it the people who want to experience the story are the ones seen as being bad for making people wait when this is a story-driven game?
This thread is a doozy.
