I have more than enough gold to buy the mount and I do care about it being removed.

this is unreasonable

I only see this as a way to sell more Tokens, a pathetic and a scummy move.

Blizzard is really hellbent on destroying whatever scraps of goodwill it managed to scrape up from Blizzcon, eh?

Anyone remember the Insuricare scene from Incredibles?
It feels more and more like Blizzard is being run by a bunch of Gilbert Huphs who care more about how much they can squeeze out of us instead of focusing on making a fun game.

Come on, why would people buy a fun video game?
This business model is great and surely won’t backfire in the long term.
This sucks.

If its extinct we should just be able to buy it once we get to the Shadowlands, right. Since we’re bringing all the dead stuff back. Checkmate blizz.

I’ll give you 20,000 gold for the mount. Take it or leave it.

Yes, and you better buy wowtokens with real money farm out enough gold for your brutosaur before the next gold sink is buying transmog/mount slots with 100k gold per slot to learn new stuff.

I really liked what I saw for Shadowlands, but now I’m grumpy with Blizzard again. It’s a real shame, they’d managed to hype me up for their stuff only to just twist the dagger in my spine.
Guess I’ll be grinding out some gold because no chance am I paying with tokens…

Utterly ridiculous. Most random thing to remove for absolutely no reason. A person probably wouldn’t be able to afford it even if they farmed all of the MoP/WoD raids on 10 characters per week until SL release.

blizzard, if your really hard up trying pad metrics and sales…
maybe try making more enjoyable content to retain players as opposed to content designed to feed into skinner box tactics/sunk cost fallacies and padding your time played.

First, i expect a gold rush for the gold sellers. Yea, good way to combat gold selling.
Next, i guess this is the answer to ‘ok, we need a new way to pad /play time’.
Obviously even if someone sits in AH all day, playing mogul and ignore everything else in the game is still absolutely okay - as long as they are increasing the metrics.
Sylvanas is reading this thread and thinking: “Thanks for taking the focus of complaint threads off me for a little bit, Blizzard!”

Not that I’ll EVER have the gold to buy one (trust me I won’t) but I can’t see removing it having any benefit. Arena mounts make sense because duh that season is over so there’s no way to earn the mount. AOTC mounts make sense because you’re no longer ahead of the curve when a new expac launches. Removing an already ungodly priced mount to make it somehow more exclusive is like saying “Well we built this Vanta black lambo at a price of 60 mil (i dunno how much they cost) but we’re gonna stop selling them when the new year rolls around”.
I’m of the mindset that Ion and his crew are all literal goblins because this smacks of gobin thinking.
