Taiwan Player "Beats" World of Warcraft

[CyberKnight]

Silly gamer. The only winning move is not to play.

Truer images have never been posted.

Seriously though, the fact that they make it so annoying to quit and ask you in like ten different ways "Are you SURE you don't want to keep automatically wiring us money?" Just made me more determined to never go back

Oh no, what has he done...

Props to him - it's not something I would ever consider doing, but I gotta say it's impressive to say the least, getting the top arena 'chievements while doing all the raiding stuff as well takes a lot of commitment. I'll tip my slightly blue-r Don Carlos' Famous Hat [http://www.wowhead.com/?item=38506] to him.

nah
I just had an epiphany on nov. 30th
you'll get it eventually

August 17th, 2009 was my last day playing.

When he figures out a way to complete every single possible quest in the game, then I will applaud him.

Confirmed very recently by employees that as of now this has not been done, in fact, there are a few quests in the game yet to be completed period.

Considering quests get datamined every patch, I highly doubt there are quests out there that people don't know about, and thus there won't be quests that people haven't done unless their character/class choice means that they can't do them.

Source? I find this very, very hard to believe, especially since there are achievements for completing pretty much every quest in every zone.

Let me see if I can't dig it up.

BTW, those "Complete X quests in Y Zone", yeah, it's not every quest in the zone. usually it's two or three short.

In the meantime, as a sort of think on this point: Certain quests are faction specific, an therefore without faction and race changes it is impossible to complete every quest in the game.

I really don't need to quote a blue on that point, as it's just fact.

Yes, but you didn't say every quest, you said every POSSIBLE quest. Which means that as a Tauren he ain't gonna be doing the BElf openings chains.

I was mainly referring to your claim that there are quests that haven't yet been completed at all. That strikes me as slightly dubious.

Upon further investigation (as requested), the threads i recalled were about "Ghost Quest" givers.

I apologize, I don't know how to link but I will simply post the threads urls

While apparently i was incorrect and no blue that I could find has specifically stated that there were quests never completed (sans for ones never implemented), the original point stands, there are multiple chose this/that missions that are one time (Aldor/Scryer is one) that cannot be completed by the same character.

So, it is in reality as of this moment impossible to complete every quest.

OT: Kind of still wish I found a blue post on it, even if I did find a bunch of regular posters saying exactly what I just posted.

To address your post: I said every possibly quest in the game (WoW), I don't see how this implies anything but every single quest. Actually, even under your definition, the quest I mentioned (the initial Aldor/Scryer quest) is by all means possible, both of them.

Don't get me wrong, what he did is impressive.

Blizzard better Nix these achivements or make more. Cause when someone gets them all...

They may very well quit as they have "nothing" left to do.

Even thought they knew it in the back of their minds....now they have proof.

 

[Kuliani]

Obviously, completing all of the achievements doesn't mean that the player has "defeated" World of Warcraft but that doesn't make the feat any less impressive.

Actually, having all the achievements does mean he has beaten WoW. It shows that he has done near every quest that he can, collected as much as he could, and defeated every boss there is, even in hard/weird/special ways.

He has done all the hardest and the easiest content in the game. I consider that as having beat the game.

(Also, his pure dumb luck in getting all the masks during Halloween is just unfair)

I remember the "Ghost Questgivers" thread. Once again: Eleven million active players. You really think there's a corner of the map that hasn't been combed/datamined at least once? He's likely done every possible quest for his characters.

No, your original point doesn't stand

"every single possible quest in the game" means exactly that. Every single possible quest in the game, not impossible ones. This guy has done the limits of what is currently possible in the game.

The next large content patch is coming up in the next week(s), which will include new zones, new raid zones, etc, which drags along a whole new bunch of achievements to gain.
