Why dont u quit wow and play one of those games with premade characters so that you can QQ less about wanting to have good gear without having to put effort in obtaining it.

Having said that, devs are making encounters more challenging to suit the needs of veteran players. Keep in mind that WoW is 2 years old. The game is not caught in a viscious cycle, rather it is (like all products) going through its life cycle, and products that dont change or remain similar to its original form will definetly die or be gobbled up by competitors. WoW is a business & businesses strive on repeat sales for sustainability. In this case, it is players subscriptions. Blizz's first priority would be to keep veteran players excited about the game by offering gear upgrades and challenging encounters for this group of individuals are the people who really contribute to the main income. The second priority would then go 2 casual gamers, followed by new players. MMORPG companies that do not have a clearly defined focus like this will find that players will eventually lose interest in the product. The little rep grind is simply a choice that is given to each player should they decide to pursue an item that can be purchased at a certain rep. For the average person, the level of satisfaction is postively corrrelated to the work put in to achieve. Blizz is simply building new content based on this.

im a casual player now and sometimes i play after work till bout 12.30am. Yes i have run those instances with non guildies.. but on an old server, people know how to play. We were pugging ONY/MC/BWL in Dec.

I dont really think xpax boss mechanics are hard, certainly not as direct as UBRS, but nothing overly complicated.

Nice epeen flexing yourself.. might have impressed someone out there.
