That there's ongoing sentiment that pets are being used to force players into different aspects of the game, rather than in an already established mini-game. And that Blizzard will take all of this into consideration and possibly address these issues going forward ADumbledorenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388700860822911526.post-15768152301976191152017-06-09T22:58:54.071-07:002017-06-09T22:58:54.071-07:00"We, as pet collectors, need to admit and acc..."We, as pet collectors, need to admit and accept that the pet collecting environment is probably changing.

Folks who get this and have no interest would benefit as well as the pet collecting community. <br /><br />If it is a way to just force players to put in more time it won't work. Being tied to such an aggressive achievement is unfair to a lot of us.

I could easily do this achievement in the future but I'm not gonna. Used to be top 5 on my server for collections but I am just so over blizz doing stuff like this. I'm mad at myself for resubbing, even more so now.

I never minded a pet where I had to try a part of the game I didn't normally participate in to get the pet. But when I had to seriously commit to it, then it wasn't much fun. When I realized I wasn't have fun, I moved on to other games.Heartfruithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18061836927855850000noreply@blogger.com
