Im more specifically asking about the activities that we need to do in order to obtain the achievement.
What perplexes me is how can people claim to like world of warcraft, if they bitch and moan about doing things they would normally do just playing the game anyway?
I don't get it.
You HAVE to quest the zones in order to level up. And in the natural course of leveling up, if you spent any effort on exploration and secret finding, that would complete most of the achievement anyway (at least the first part).
I would assume that people want to find out about the various factions of the new expansion, and in so doing, gain rep with them naturally. So revered isn't really a tall order at all, assuming people are interested in the game.
Flying completely aside, why wouldn't anyone want to complete the achievement anyway? If there was NO flying period, and there was a pathfinder achievement in the game, it seems to me that anyone who doesn't like pathfinder only connects it to flight, and they cant see past their own face and blindness.
"Oh hey the game isn't fucking fun unless i can mount up on a whim and fly in circles"
There is a GAME with ALL sorts of systems and secrets, and quests, and lore and interesting stories and side stories and dungeons and raids. The game isnt some one dimensional flight simulator, and that's not even close to the focus of what world of warcraft is.
"I don't like Pathfinder" = "I don't like playing the game."
