We've all been running alliance roulette for years now, and all we've ever gotten in it was crystal tower. How is that any different from being "required" to do it? Chances are, you probably already unlocked CT like everyone else. I get it, I do. I hate Crystal Tower. I hate most 24 man content. But everyone at least unlocks/completes it once. 99% of players are going to inevitably unlock Crystal Tower anyway. So what's the big fucking deal?! Insinuating that this is going to be a trend where SE is going to start requiring people to craft or play lord of verminion or go fishing or whatever irrelevant content in order to progress MSQ is absolute nonsense, and borders on conspiracy theory territory. SE isn't being run by lizard-people, folks.

This move makes 100% sense given the context of the MSQ story. Raiding is, always has been, and always will be completely optional. Alliance raids are not raids. They're just normal noob dungeons with more people. That's literally it. If you think that's "raiding", you're just wrong. Period. End of story. Bye bye. See you later!
Hey look, someone who is factually right.
