Comment by MetaAnderA bit late. As usual.Comment by oOArcticWolfOocool... but too late... thanks for the time sink blizz. I bet with you that thats a tactic of them to spend hours of hours for this just to change things and speed up stuff like abundance's to milking the time (and so the money) of the last of us.Comment by ancineniIt should make blizzard wonder if norm and hard difficulty levels should exist at all?

I think at very least one of them should go or maybe both should be significantly shorter?Comment by OkapiiBreaking news: Defeating a boss on Nightmare now confirms you also surely can defeat it on Normal/Hard. Same as doing Mythic Voidspire and getting the Heroic Achievement… Revolutionary technology.Comment by sergioaplI was hoping to find the magic word "retroactive" in this post.... I hope Blizzard knowsComment by nisxShould've been a thing since release...Comment by DhisanIn today episode of: "Things that should have always been"...Comment by StrayPurpleCatOhhhh I could've used this a hot minute ago. Glad I didn't burn myself out by going and doing them ALL after I focused Nightmare.

QOL upgrade for everyone else though!Comment by CorpselanceI needed that laugh! Oh man, what a beautiful troll. Thanks, Blizzard.Comment by GutterKittyNice to see my grind to complete them all is now for naught.Comment by piediddlyI figured this was going to be an upcoming change, so I'm glad I didn't force myself to slog through every Prey target below Nightmare level.Comment by LostsinclairDear god please be retroactiveComment by grayshirtA bit late. As usual.Comment by GabrijelCzwow just a whole season lateComment by drypulsewould have been useful months ago...Comment by BeerWolfGlad I wasted my time doing all Normal and Hard ones... pft.

Wish they'd do these things from the start!Comment by RenmazuoI literally did full Nightmare yesterday, glad to know I won't have to burn myself for the other 2Comment by keyboardnotfoundIt should have been done as a hotfix a long time ago.
Making it as a "feature" or "QoL change" of the upcoming expansion is rediculous.
Fix it in the current (1st) season.Comment by hasdruidaWe successfully participated in the development of the beta, and now that the game is about to be released, we can finally enjoy it!Comment by GrissuThis may indicate that, they finally got one person in dev team that plays like we do. NO WAY!
There's still too many annoying achivements in the game. Hard and that require effort to complete, are different from those annoying ones. Probably the worst ones, are those where you have to wait days for a specific quest, or specific thing.
Imo with those very fast paced patches they shouldn't make so many stuff to collect, because before this game was a second job, and now you would have to quit your main job, to get everything if you are a completionist, or play on 3 accounts like ppl do...
My completionist circle were getting smaller and smaller, and now is almost non existent, just because of those 2 issues. Almost everything you collect lost it's value, and there's too much bloat.
