If there’s two people saying otherwise, it’s an opinion, not a fact.
“I think that’s very unlikely. Some of those particular mounts, rewards, and titles exist to show you were there, you did the thing, and if you missed it, you missed it.”
“The vast majority of all the rewards across World of Warcraft of every type are things that you can go back and get years later – you can go back and kill old Mythic raid bosses to get their titles and farm up their mounts. But, there are a handful of things in the space that really are about the fact you were part of an experience, and if you see someone with it, you know they did it while it mattered.”
These are direct quotes from Ion Hazzikostas on November 23, 2022 during an interview about time limited rewards.
I wish I could get the vdh, prot pally and prot warr original mage tower skins, I really do, but how I feel or how any other player feels about the mage tower doesn’t matter. Blizzard isn’t listening.
For sure!

Not on this one. Sorry not sorry.

Damn, not only do they whine about how mean I am, they stole my “sorry not sorry” thing.
Oh you invented that phrase?
Yes, on this one. Saying that scarcity doesn’t affect value is just silly.

I stole it from Mr. Garrison first and you know it.
It’s subjective from person to person. There’s also no such thing as digital scarcity.
Fair.
Well, it’s scarce because the devs said it was scarce.
They are initially placing the value on it.

The level of value is, yes. The fact that scarcity increases it is not.
And yet, here we are, with digitally scarce items.

They may create the digital scarcity but players determine the subjective value.
Which can be exactly zero. How can it have value if I say “I wish the things I’ve already obtained get put back into the game”?
Which can literally stopped at any time. It’s not like actual scarcity of a real life item.

It has value to others, or you wouldn’t even think to ask.
Sure. Which would decrease their value dramatically.
There’s special sets available for completing Mage Tower right now. Nobody cares about those, though.

Didn’t I just go over this when I said
Good.
Okay, so we’ve established that you know these items only have the value they have because they’re unavailable, and that you don’t care and want it burned down anyways.
I’m glad we could arrive here.

Which is subjective, like I’ve said multiple times. Yes, that subjective value could be zero.
Damn right.

For a second I thought this was about adding back class flavor and class fantasy. Turns out it’s another “FOMO bad” thread.
