Quote:They count on us being addicted when they pull this crap. I pay my fee to play on a PvE server. If people want to PvP there, they go to a battleground or arena or flag where others might decide to take pot shots at them. If they would have required folks to flag to participate and make essential and quest NPCs immune, all would be good. There is no way to cut it to make it OK for PvP to be forced on anyone whether they enjoy PvP at other times or not.
You're talking as if Blizzard had signed some contract which stipulated that they had to design content that appealed to everyone, and if they couldn't, to properly fence it off. How does that make any sense? They design the game they want to make, and you decide whether or not you want to play it. If the answer is no, you can wait it out; the event didn't even last a week. There is no way to force PvP on someone, as there is no way to force them to play.
We pay $15 per month to play World of Warcraft, a constantly evolving MMORPG. We do not pay our fee for a static, predictable experience.
A plague of exploding high-fives.
