Can’t really blame folks for giving up on this topic. Blizzard hasn’t demonstrated much interest in what we have to say here on the forums. It’s a bit like we’re just typing into the nether.
With the lockdown and everything, it’s getting hard to believe there are real people working at Blizz anymore. I mean, how would we be able to tell? Are we really being ignored, or is there just no one left to respond? What’s the difference?
I finally reached the 5M to buy the Brutosaur. Took me over 5 months of farming (with zero AH hustling). December 20th, January 26th, March 12th, April 24th and June 3rd were my milestones. (kind of slowed down towards the end…probably could’ve done in 4 months, tbh)
You’re right thanks.
I really should have used a sarcasm tag for people who don’t have your level of comprehension.
I had thought the overdone language and capitals would sufficiently signify sarcasm for the rest.
For dungeon farming. You fill your bags, pop the mount list the mats and continue farming.
Seriously, I’ll quit the game if they pull a stunt like this. I’m struggling to get the gold for this after they screwed up all the professions I used to rely on. I don’t think I’ll make it before the end of the xp but I was hoping to keep working in it later.
I knew I wasn’t going to make by the end of the expansion, but I was on track to have it by then end of Shadowlands. I kind of lost my desire to play after I realized I wasn’t going to be able to do this. (It was my major goal, and working toward it was the main reason I logged in.)
That, combined with a renewed interest in things outside of WoW really put a damper on my playing. I keep hoping I’ll find a new thing to aim for and get back into the game, so I haven’t cancelled my account or anything. (A non-AH version of the mount would be a very welcome boost to my enthusiasm.)
I’m still rooting for those who are still trying to get this mount. Keep working at it, Osmanthia. You might make it yet!
100% agree with everyone here, every other gold sink mount is still in the game so why should this one be any different? Unless of course you’re just wanting to stimulate token sales and curb the amount of people that would generally be taking a break around now.
If you’re being completely honest about not wanting the mount to become too common like the WOTLK vendor mammoth or MoP Yak, you could have just increased its price each expansion to have it go up with inflation, it could be 5 million now and 10 million in Shadowlands but still available from the same vendor.
I don’t really like the BMAH path because it just adds RNG into the mix and we’re all sick of everything having to have some RNG sprinkled over it.
I would wager that there are more people against this change than there are for it. So I guess that means they shouldn’t have done it in the first place.
Luckily they don’t always cave to what people on the forum want, I couldn’t imagine what the game would be like if that was the case.
They are a for-profit business. We have the choice, as customers, to sit here and continue paying them each month with our time and money or to find something else to do with our time and money. Continuing to spend our time and money here means we condone that behavior. I don’t really see the issue in a for-profit company making profit. Without profit the servers would shut down and none of us would be here anyway.
Except if you look through my post history you won’t see me on the forum begging for many changes at all. So lets not start making stuff up to push a narrative.
No they aren’t. They aren’t getting rid of this game. lol
