World of Warcraft Changes Frustrating Achievement After 14 Years
To the relief of many fans, Blizzard Entertainment has changed the requirements needed to attain one of World of Warcraft's Achievements. First introduced in the 2008 Wrath of the Lich King expansion, Achievements are goals that players can reach which allow them to obtain exclusive mounts. Achievements may also be part of the reason the amount of World of Warcraft players has stayed in the millions despite the fact that the MMORPG was released so long ago. However, some of the requirements for these Achievements have been frustrating players.
To obtain the exclusive Violet Proto-Drake mount, players had to obtain the What a Long Strange Trip It's Been meta Achievement, which could not be obtained unless players obtained the For the Children meta Achievement. This Achievement was obtained through the seasonal Children's Week event and could only be achieved once the player obtained the frustrating School of Hard Knocks Achievement. What made this smaller Achievement so frustrating is that it required players to accomplish difficult feats in PvP over the course of Children's Week--an event which only happens once a year. These difficult feats included capturing and scoring an enemy flag in a specific game mode or assaulting a Tower in the Alterac Valley game type as their Children's Week orphan follows. The irritatingly difficult School of Hard Knocks Achievement may have caused some fans to question whether WoW is even still worth playing.
