Why do casual players seem entitled to cosmetic items added in game?

[Mawlzy]

You make a fair point, but when you see people NOW running around with something you want but you feel like you can't get, it's only natural to be bummed about it.

Btw, I'm not advocating for savage rewards to be handed over to people who don't do savage. I just have an issue with casual players being called "entitled" when it's far more likely that they are just sad that a pretty new cosmetic is locked behind something they feel is beyond their reach.

By all means, if you or anyone else finds someone demanding savage rewards without doing savage, point me in their direction and I'll laugh at them with you because that's just silly.

Agree with that, but there is also the elephant in the room of why a highly-desirable cosmetic item was locked behind savage-level content, particularly when it had absolutely no thematic link to that content.

It seems probable this was another failed attempt by SE to funnel non-raiders into content they do not like.
