Subject: Blizzard caught in a lie
   "We don't ever want players to feel as though they have made choices which have "broken" their character."

-Eyonix

"Roric, you took it upon yourself to kill the Goblins in order to raise your faction with the dastardly pirates, and you wear their hat and fly their bird with pride, yet you want us to fix it? I am sorry, but you must prove your worth to the Goblins, not us. If killing 90,000 pirates is what the Goblins want, then that is what you must do."

-Fangtooth

The time it would take to kill even 45000 pirates is greater than the time it would take to reroll and level a new character up to 60. Is that not the definition of "breaking" a character?

Q u o t e:
He knew what he was getting into when he started killing goblins, and has all the power within the game to reverse it.

Your quote from Eyonix was in reference to talent points, and the cost for respeccing. If there was no mechanism to respec, then a played could have potentially 'broken' their character. But there is a mechanism to respec, just like there is a way to get back in bed with the goblins.

Your arguement would only hold true if the player could not reverse the negative goblin rep. The time it takes is irrelevant to the discussion. The mechanism is there.

Thus, you lose the arguement, logic and not taking quotes out of context wins.


Thanks, Clarice. I don't even need to respond at this point :p
