Store transmog and why It's a problem

It looks sexy on me!

Though apparently not as sexy as me being naked.

Yea. I wouldn’t be surprised. I thought to point that out as well cause I remember watching a streamer once…a viewer got mad and then suddenly mass dislike the video…even admitted to it. Goes to show do we really know if all likes/dislikes are true,etc. Or people just doing it to prove a point. xD

Yeah, I would never trust it. People trying to argue based on youtube likes already lost the argument.

Or they had 6month sub and got it for free even if they would prefer another mount ?

I mean this was NOT ADDED to the shop , its a 6 MONTH SUB PROMO , that was made available to everyone by also being on the shop .

Imagine defending a multi-billion dollar corporation who were found guilty of breaching Belgian gambling laws. :rofl:

lol…literally taking public opinion and saying “That doesn’t matter”

Yikes…you’re way out there. Better get your tinfoil hat.

Prove it? There’s tons of WoW videos with a large like to dislike ration…

Exactly, they don’t care…which is wrong and bad. The whole point of all this.

Which is bad and wrong. They could charge $500 to have flying unlocked at the start of every expansion and guess what? People would pay for it 100% and they’d make a lot of money. Does that mean they should? Do you think we should be paying $500 an expansion to fly?

One of the top comments “Anyone who buys store items with real money can no longer complain when the game sucks or lacks content”

“This just makes me want to quit WoW forever”

“I wish they put this much effort into making a good transmog set for the scourge invasion gear like we had witht he legion event but we just get reskin from bfa set”

That’s fine, you don’t care about playing the actual game, you’d rather just spend money to get everything.

I was referring to the WoW videos in this context. Sorry, didn’t think I needed to clarify. Not touching the rest of your post with a 10 foot pole though.

oh well then they got something for free. not seeing the problem then.

Equating flying to a transmog set in terms of value is disingenuous.

Why are you still supporting them then? Put your money where your mouth is, bucko.

Is supporting an evil corporation ok if you only spend x amount vs y amount?

he’ll come in and say he only plays with gold sub, despite that still contributing to the wheel of evil

You will probably win that one. I will literally die laughing though.

Where did you get this from?

While i am actually ok with this, that’s just simply not the case.

I don’t think giving those of us with 6-month subs something free in the mail every once in awhile is a big deal, but I still agree with this statement 100%.

it’s only around $180k worth of gold iirc

I am not supporting their microtransactions, I am supporting their pay to play business model. I am glad companies like Blizzard & Activision was found guilty for gambling laws, I couldn’t imagine what would happen if they were left unregulated. However, it is still going on unfortunately. For example, one player in Runescape spent 62,000 dollars for microtransactions in that game and ruined his credit and is now in debt. Gambling addiction is a big mental health problem in society. I don’t support it, because I don’t buy microtransactions any longer.

Microtransactions are a part of their business model too.

Though calling them microtransactions is a bastardization of the word.

I mean if you don’t want to buy them, that is fine… I am certainly not saying everyone should. It’s just holding people to YOUR standards rather than THEIRS is arrogant.

Wow, imagine thinking that people clearly disliking something that’s bad and saying “It’s probably just fake votes”

Wow, tin foil hats are strong with these folks.

Like clockwork. We have “Public opinion on official sources doesn’t matter” “Someone’s running fake accounts to mass downvote it” and “a streamer told people to downvote it”

yet…that somehow doesn’t make up for the lack of upvotes…? But I guess that just DOESN’T matter to these people…

There are people who pay for WoW in 6 month chunks only, though.

Has nothing to do with me wanting it and everything to do with me not wanting them to put transmog in the store…try reading the actual thread.

Imagine that, people upset that in-game items aren’t obtainable through fun engaging ways and instead are forced to grind gold because Blizzard wants to make more money… :roll_eyes:

Okay, and they got it for zero dollars. Why are you complaining about free items?

There are plenty of other sets for you to farm if the gold grind is unsavoury.
