I recently caved in and decided to play the "you can't go past level 20" trial version of World of Warcraft. I have an undead character whose "put a leash around a fish and bring it to the crazy guy in the attic in Cold Hearth Manor to keep as a pet" quest is bugged. Specifically, I have two leash skills in my skill bar thing (no idea how the second one got there), but they're both grayed out as if I've already completed the quest... even though I haven't. I tried teaming up with a guy who hadn't done the quest yet, then walked him through it, but I didn't get credit for his capture... what's the point of inviting or joining groups if you don't share credit for quests?
Note that this was AFTER I permanently lost the Gaudy Winter Vest on another character whose quests got all fuxx0red because of a crash. The Gaudy Winter Vest was only available THIS Christmas, so I will never, ever be able to get another one unless I buy it on eGay or whatever.
I'd complain about this on the official Battle.net forums, except that doing so would require upgrading my account. Yes, I'd have to pay for the full game to complain about a problem that's present in the starter version, because apparently Blizz lost its soul and common sense some time during the past ten years.
Anyway, do you guys have any tips on how to get my stupid fish quest working again, without abandoning and re-accepting (which would be marked on my permanent record, because some game-designers are just dicks like that)?
I do not blame Michael Bay for crapping all over a huge part of my childhood. He just directed the scripts that were given to him. I blame Orci, Kurtzman, and Krueger, who seem completely incapable of concocting a story that even halfway makes sense.RiddlerJ wrote:Each one will come with an autographed picture of Michael Bay sitting on top of a huge pile of money.
