    I am talking about its aesthetics. You can make a fight complex like heroic Ragnaros, if it doesn't looks cool, it's worthless to me.

This in itself makes doing the fight that way "cheap" because you are bypassing the mechanics of the normal fight.

    Do the fight however you want, but don't try to claim that it isn't cheap. That's one thing that it definitely is.
    Hard enrages deal over 11000 damage in one blow. From Hellfire to Earthen Fury. This is a soft enrage. You will wipe if it goes long enough.
    People got enough gear to finish the fight before they wipe. Not sure what's so cheap about it.

    It's not like touching 1, waiting a few seconds then touching 3 marks the line between a good and a bad player.

    Enrage method works wonders for people that are "lucky" enough to have borderline unplayable positioning lag regardless of whether they do or do not use the VPN services. Like, you know, a number of people across the freaking Atlantic from where the "EU" servers are. If I'll ever have to choose between interesting fight mechanics that randomly kill several players on my group regardless of how good they are and a dumb workaround that can be used under any network conditions I'll go for the latter any day.

    You're totally right! Removing easily handled fight mechanics that require a little bit of communication to bypass totally isn't cheap!

    Oh wait, doing something to make anything with a slight amount of difficulty into a braindead easy snorefest is the very definition of cheap in video games.

    I don't care if people do it, just don't pretend it isn't cheap. Like I said, that's the only thing it definitely is.

    Ok then, it's cheap.

    People getting offended by "easy handled mechanics" being skipped, is just...
