Legit good. I am fine with this. TCG weren’t a limited time event item in game, it was something you had to buy. Entirely different than the limited time mogs and mounts, and makes total sense for them to stay gone when you are logical and not pretending you care about principal, and are mad you wasted $3k on a mount.

I don’t think I can take a lot of what he says seriously either.

He’s talking about AOTC, KSM and Glad…mostly seasonal rewards that are attached to a balance that can’t be repeat. Maybe you can extend that to MT / CM from MoP/WoD.

If they design a new feature or recycle previous ones like MT, maybe it won’t have the same approach and there’s plenty of removed content that could comeback .

He actually said, “very unlikely.” In regards to seasonal items.

In the same interview with Annie, He said that promotional/removed content is a reason why mount achievements are behind compared to petbattles…the impact on new players. But they just announced that the DK mount from classic will be removed next week…instead of moving it to the BMAH.

he also said titles n other tings lke that to show u were there when it mattered

I hate that they make items limited time exclusives. Totally turns me off. One of the reasons I uninstalled and am not playing anymore.

It’s mostly seasonal content that can’t be repeated properly, that wasn’t designer as an evergreen feature/reward system.

even if they genuinely wanted to stop doing these FOMO type events, i dont think they could. its like a compulsion with them

They say that, but we all know if the time comes that bringing them back would net them more money than keeping them gone, they will bring them back.

Also, no content should ever be removed from the game. None. Ever.

It’s going into the “vault” for the foreseeable future imo.
