Lunar Festival? Blizz forget about content.

It seems they did, my friend, but far be it for me to let that information go unheeded. Hello Xenophobae (what an interesting and somewhat ironic name, considering the topic). I am one of the designers on the World Team, a team specifically dedicated to creating holiday content and world flavor. I assure you our team is not delaying the patch or the expansion; my team is one of many working on a schedule to bring you, the player, content, in the form of both patches and the upcoming expansion. Lunar Festival was not updated this year, nor the previous year, though this year people who have done the content previously can again collect the coins. Our team is focused on other matters of slightly higher priority; Lunar Festival, while it has been around a while, is a substantial holiday in its own right, and other aspects of the world and our holidays need the attention. :) It may be that you do not consider this content up your alley, and I don't fault you for that; however, World of Warcraft houses players of many opinions and playstyles, and there are quite a number who do enjoy our holiday content. I hope you continue to enjoy the aspects of the game that appeal to you. :) |

I must ask... were you in a raid? :) I did the quest just last night and it worked flawlessly. And yes, it causes a light beam to appear. |

Understand that we work quite a bit in the future. The work I'm doing right now is something players won't see for months. |

Don't take that as a release date for the patch, because that isn't what I meant. ;) Holidays fire off on certain dates. The holiday in particular I'm working on won't start for months, and therefore, the content won't be seen, really, until that time. |

I don't have anything specific to reveal at this point; there's time enough to wait before our next big revamp hits. Also, there are quite a few designers on these forums; even if they're not posting, they're reading (and yes, naysayers, that includes the Suggestion Forum!) We comment when we have things to say, generally, but we don't want to steal the thunder from our Community Team. They're your real go-to people when it comes to seeking questions answered or wanting to give feedback; I just haunt the forums more frequently when there's a holiday up and running to make certain nothing's gone awry. As for me, these forums are... in my blood, let's say. :) |

It's not my favorite, no, but it's readily recognizable (or was, before that darn Kurken) as Omen, one of the icons of holiday events. :) Plus, an "omen" is a harbinger of some future event, and thus is event-oriented in its own right. There is a method to my madness. ;) |
