Dont Lock Emotes To Extremely Exensive Merchandise

[ErryK]

Man, you can't tell people how they're supposed to enjoy the game. I've been subbed for the entirety of HW, and I haven't stepped a single foot into a savage raid, but I'm having a blast. You can't tell someone they're having fun wrong, that's not how it works.

Where did I say they can't have fun or how they're supposed to enjoy the game? Do you see where I said "worry" and not "enjoy"? They can enjoy the game, but to me, personally, the fact that the statue is affecting their enjoyment of the game is a far cry from genuine, it is attention seeking purely for the fact that they can't get x.

Everybody is different! If someone walks up to me and does an action that I cannot reciprocate then yeah, it would bug me and the spell is broken... Same goes with exclusive outfits etc. Saying first and foremost I should care about xyz shows that you cannot understand any point of view except your own.

I'm sorry, but I can understand other points of view, I am a very compassionate person, but this... this I cannot understand. Because what you're saying is saying a visual item, an emote, is affecting your gaming enjoyment, drastically. Sorry, that's dramatics, it's seeking attention, and not attempting to fix the situation. It is almost laughable that it actually has that effect on an individual.

In all honesty, the only rebuttal I see being valid is saving up, everyone has the opportunity to save up for an item as long as they have enough income. If you don't, then hope it goes on sale, or ask a relative to gift it to you for x occasion. But I cannot be compassionate to someone who says x item is affecting their enjoyment. If you weren't playing the game, maybe you wouldn't be experiencing these feelings? It's a two way street.

i don't exactly agree with their concern, but calling yourself compassionate then in the same breath telling someone that their troubles and concerns are laughable really irks me.

We can bitch and moan about locking content behind paywalls all we want (and I have!) but until people stop buying stuff off the cash shop, or buying real life things to get in-game items, SE is going to keep selling them.

So basically you are having a dig at me because you cannot understand my point of view and so I should stop playing...... Trololololololololol; I guess you sing this to yourself when you type.

Well its because a emote really doesn't affect you. Its kinda selfish of u since everything is fine as long as YOU can afford it but that's not how it works. Would you complain about that someone drives a expensive car etc. too because you cant afford it? because it affects your enjoyment? You see its not a big deal for some ppl mounts/fantasia etc. are called "expensive" for some it isn't. Ppl just don't care cause they can afford it now they cant and complain

I was saying how is sad that rl wealth is affecting a game that I was using for escapism. I don't see how having an opinion like that is selfish?

And selling the high end raid equip would only affect you positively, as the players that buy it would be able to carry the players in worse equip better with their higher output. PvP is synced, so no advantage there and you don't get an advantage on the Market Board game either.

And if you can't afford it, you can still just do the raids yourself and get the weapons that way. Not only does selling power like that positively affect other players, they can also get it via ingame means if they cannot afford it. Seems much better than exclusive cosmetics from a rational point of view. Even more so when you consider that the equipment will become outdated anyway.

Irrationally, people will be screaming at the notion! Just watch.

I'm saying your way of thinking is wrong, and that your priorities are in the wrong places, that's all. I used the not-playing thing as an example, I'm not saying you don't deserve it or that you shouldn't have the opportunity, but the fact that a vanity item affects you negatively (outside of racism and stereotyping but let's not go into that) is very dramatic and attention-seeking. It doesn't feel like a genuine issue.

I like how having my own opinion is dramatic and attention seeking. It is no more than my opinion. No matter how much you say I am just wrong (in your opinion) you will not change my view. Well done for finding an online dictionary

I'm saying your way of thinking is wrong.... Lol...

Also I'm quite intrigued in a nervous way about your sudden jump into racism and stereotyping... You are digging deep at the bottom of some barrel

So what i'm getting from this thread:

Waaah pander to me I want to ERP!
Waaah curse the twelve why is everyone privileged but me?!
Sensible people who realize it's just a flavor of the month emote that will be forgotten as soon as a new one is added.
