It seemed pretty clear that attunements were not designed to punish alts or new players coming in mid-expansion or grinding guild progression to a halt across multiple patches. Blizzard has admitted as such in their reasoning for removing attunements altogether.Azurielhttp://inanage.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-51807426484854837072012-07-14T12:17:39.602-05:002012-07-14T12:17:39.602-05:00I appreciate, and agree with your point, but the c...I appreciate, and agree with your point, but the context of a forum that is moderated by developers changes the rules of a discussion.<br /><br />The whole point becomes to sway the invisible minds of the almighty Blizzard, not to change the minds or gain the respect of other forum members. I'm stating my opinion, in such a way it might get attention or gather a small torch bearing crowd.<br /><br />A moderated forum discussion is more analogous to a crowd of people trying to get their voices heard in a political caucus. You're there with an agenda, and the goal is persuasion, not polite discourse.Bristalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11849907713604626977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-49250664169357388362012-07-13T12:50:57.173-05:002012-07-13T12:50:57.173-05:00Pretty much agree with the above, except to point ...Pretty much agree with the above, except to point out that you can have stuff that's 'bad design' rather than 'bad code' and still be objectively bad. For example, having PvP instances that give almost as much reward for an AFKer on the losing team as they do for the winning team's most valued player is bad design - the outcome (an epidemic of leeches) almost certainly isn't what the designer actually wanted to have happen in his game. It's working as intended, but the intent was borked.<br />The problem is that a lot of players out there are narcissistic a-holes who assume that the intent of design must always be to deliver what they, personally, want most.<br />BTW, the way I play games is the way designers should design them, and would if they were as awesome as I am. If what I do causes a wipe, just remember that it's the result of bad design and what the devs should have done would have resulted in success :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-52020060147228420932012-07-13T09:28:41.048-05:002012-07-13T09:28:41.048-05:00It sounds like you are finally realizing the vast ...It sounds like you are finally realizing the vast majority of the internet is ignorant to the difference between Subjective and Objective.<br /><br />Philosophy and logic are not taught in most elementary / high schools.

No benefits, only negatives for certain players that do not partake in harmful activities is something I would classify as bad design.NetherLandsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-91020859521979994542012-07-13T06:51:48.072-05:002012-07-13T06:51:48.072-05:00> as every other class is wiped out.
