Remember when GC (I think) said that even things like fuckign Pet Battles took them months and months to think about? Because once they implement it, and it fails, it's their responsibility and it will let people down. They had to be be ABSOLUTELY SURE that they will continue on with Pet Battles before putting it in. Nowadays? JUST RIP EVERYTHING OUT! Here goes stormlash, cascade, aspect of the fox, which we just put in 3-4 months ago, etc. Wow...
So this "we change everything radically from monday to tuesday " is a new thing, and I don't like it at all. I just hope this is not a trend now, but seemingly this is how the devs think these days... :=/
Where is the dev responsibility nowadays? Where is the empathy, knowing that sudden and radical changes like I mentioned above alienate the players? The game can has the most content, the most raids, if the players are losing touch with the game. And flying is in the same bucket.
