It's their loss and I'm certainly not alone. And here's the kicker; what the glorious raiders don't understand is that the massive drop in casual subs directly impacts the quality and quantity of their content.
    Good to know that you unsubbed because of a quest line that can't even be completed until at least 11 weeks from now.

    At least OP apologised for his bullshit.

    If you don't want to do normal+ EN, then this artifact appearance is not for you.

    I usually don't devolve into this kindof stuff, but; too bad, deal with it. It's easy to pug, you just have to invest some more time. If you don't want to, that's entirely your own problem.

    Paying a sub does not at all mean you're owed what's ostensibly hand-outs...

    with Normal you have to be accepted, then you are in a raid and cant do non-raid quests (aka all of them), have to wait for it to fill up manually, then you gotta fly/summon everyone, organize them etc.

    a chore
    Jesus christ, is this the average playerbase we're working with these days?

    Normal is not LFR, although it may seem that way to a mythic raider.

    To be clear I am fine with requiring N for skins. N difficulty is in a better place in EN compared to N HM.

    I agree, also gating them behind randomly spawning world bosses was kinda dick too when other classes get cool story related to them and triggers.

    can't believe this is still a discussion.

    Not being able to do the quests in LFR isnt a bad option, normal is piss easy as is.
    Also, as the expansion goes on, you'll be able to pug EN super easily.
    All the quest is now is a chance for the players who can perform higher than lfr to get a bit of bragging rights. It's cosmetic, nothing more.

    Can't believe people are so entitled as to think they deserve it for doing almost no work. I could see it being a slight problem if it were restricted to heroic and mythic, but LFR is literally no effort required

    People who expect to enjoy themselves while gaming, rather than sit around waiting to enjoy themselves? That's been the WoW playerbase since day 1, how do you think it attracted 20x as many players as EverQuest?

    Unfortunately yes, and thus the casual pandering.

    It doesn't really matter what I use. Being able to play a game is the reward of effort in real life.

    They don't have to just have every single reward with an "easy mode" option because people are gonna bitch and moan about it. That kinda defeats the purpose of difficulty levels.
    Blizzard is setting the rules, as it is their game we're playing.
    Besides, this is an MMO, one of the M stands for something.
    Get a job if you want to be rewarded for effort. Also I am pretty sure the Ms stand for Massive Multiplayer, neither of which dictate a effort/reward gameplay.

    Play another game then.
    I may pay my subscription every month, but I don't lose sight of the fact that the other 4/9/24/39 people I'm grouped with pay too.
