Oh, ok. Would you care to explain why it is wrong of me to “simply want” one of literally THOUSANDS of things in a game that I PAY FOR?
On the one hand, I’ve never really cared too much about someone getting something I have.
On the other hand though, I remember the near gut-punch feeling I got after finally getting the Sha mount after literal years of farming, only to have Blizzard announce Pandaria Remix two weeks later.
Lol.
You really should re-read what they said in that post. You are quoting them in a way that is completely out of context.
You forgot to quote the eye roll emoji…which denotes sarcasm and changed the entire tone of what I said. I’d suggest carefully reading next time before jumping to REEEEE.
There’s nothing wrong with simply wanting something; however, the attitude that you are owed everything in the game simply for playing a sub fee is a childish one.
Imagine believing you deserve to win every game of monopoly because you bought the game. What about the other players? WoW has instrumental play and rewards as it should be.

I don’t think monopoly is a good analogy here, because the objective of monopoly is to have all the money and property, whereas there is no objective or competition in collecting pets and mounts. Me having Arfus (I actually did have it drop the last day of this year’s Hallow’s End) doesn’t take it away from someone else, where as me having Park Place, does.
I do get your point that things should be earned, I just don’t think monopoly is a good analogy here.

No problem, sorry. I just give the first analogy that comes to my head instead of agonizing over it. I should put more thought into them, or not use them.
As someone lucky enough to have Arfus, I think they should have made him available to everyone. All of the holiday mounts/pets should be purchasable with whichever holiday currency drops during the event. Stop the FOMO and reward time played instead of RNG.
Sinister Squashlings would drop for me, but not Arfus. Yes, put him on the vendor as well since Sinister Squashling are too.
Having a pet on a low drop rate is silly, I get the mount is but it never should be a pet.
Making a holiday boss complex was a mistake.
you reward based on time play, bots will have everything
He. Is. Available. To. Everyone.
