What I said was that time gating something like this and not telling people it's time gated, but saying its in the game and working as intended, is cruel and unimaginative. Time gating is nit a magical fixitall. It's not an added difficulty or an extra brain teaser. It doesn't make anything more epic. It just prolongs the time it takes to do something. I gave an example of a thing it works with like AK, because it gives a constant sense of progression. In this case you have people looking for it, gms supposedly giving false leads, people trolling and Devs not saying anything. If it ends up being time gated making it for all intends and purposes just not available yet, then that does ruin the search and the hours people so far has put into it.
Time gating it does not make it more epic when you get it. Especially not when you find out it's the actual trigger, and not even a step on the way.
As I said I have no interest in the personal attacks you like coming with. You started the drama by assaulting my completely neutral to other people's post with. Just saying
