Store transmog and why It's a problem

It has been done many times in cults.

It’s more like screeching, but hey if you want to call it that, that’s your “objective opinion”

Weird, I’ve used the forums quite often…I’ve never heard anything coming from my speakers that sounds like screeching…and I’ve never seen any onomatopoeia’s…

I mean just from seeing your tmog alone means your opinion is mute on the topic of what looks good pls . :joy::clown_face:

Add more!!! Tmog team

My “HUH?” moment on it is the wings being shoulder and not cloak.

If they were just the wings, no visible attachment point, and on the cloak slot I’d be all over it.

God forbid Blizzard puts out a cosmetic set out in the store shop.
:roll_eyes:
Seriously if this was released for a Blizzcon gift, no one would complain about it.
Except for how ugly it is.

Its not a problem its a option, Not game breaking not p2w a bonus for a 6 month sub. the store mounts and pets are the same way and if I remember correctly the helms they had caused the same outlash its an appearance option, I just dont get it just something for people to cry about I guess

I wholeheartedly agree. Honestly, all the shop items should be earnable in game, because, WE ALREADY PAY A SUBSCRIPTION FOR THIS GAME. Now if WoW went free to play, hell yeah load up the store with mounts, transmogs, pets, etc while adding more into the game.

However, we already pay a subscription, and they’re just trying to squeeze out more and more money out of the playerbase by throwing things up in the shop. I’ve played many free-to-play MMO’s that sell things in their cash shop and I have no issue with it, because that is how they finance their game. WoW is already subscription based, you’re already having your salaries paid and you’re trying to get the extra cherry on top with the cash shop crap that you spend more time on then your in game content.

This is the same company that brought you Diablo Immortal : /

You’re right there has been complaint about existing armor that don’t fit all races. How about fix that crap first.

To be honest its a turn off especially when you’re paying a sub.

Its funny the excuses people will give and don’t realize there being screwed. How many times have we seen threads on here about armor not fitting correctly for certain races? Or about updating existing in game items and hear this crap “They can’t afford to pull away resources to fix the problem”, SMH.

I don’t blame people for being ticked off.

Who cares, if I see something I want so bad i’ll just farm gold, buy Wow Token and use that to purchase. It’s fair, you either pay real money or put in-game effort.

Plus we’ve had 8 expac full of content for MOG, I’m sure there’s something for everyone. You don’t need the shiny new toys to not feel missed out.

My mogs are still all BC so I think it’s fair, plus we’ve had like 200-300 varieties of mounts to choose, having 2-3 more paid only mount won’t mean squat. Plus some of the best mounts are still ingame exclusive (a’lar etc).

Let blizz make some extra so they don’t bother us F2P

It isn’t a problem many people have it and look amazing with the mog. Who doesn’t wanna be a fairy in Wow! Anyway my wife got this on her account and she has been using it ever since it’s something for players to get through being sub to the game. My wife was over at her boyfriends the other night and got him the 6 months of game time so they can match in game in the raid. It brings people together and i hope blizz does more of this

i’m glad we have people like you defending anti-consumer practices

Like selling stuff we dont need to buy? How dare they…

we pay a sub after spend money on the game therefore everything should be gotten in game by players via game play.

You can get these things through gameplay. In fact, these days you don’t even have to pay for the sub.

microtransactions are borderline illegal

HAHAHAHA No, they are not.

This is exactly the common sense for which no one has any response:

Would you even buy a low effort crappy transmog on the cash shop?

Blizzard definitely puts in more effort on the cash shop because it’s an extra cost on top of the game itself. If they can’t justify the extra money they want from you they will be unable to sell anything on the cash shop.

They have little shoulder tuffts, but I agree, wings should likely be a cloak thing especially considering cloaks are the least 3D-ish item we have until this expasnion.

When we’re paying for a subscription fee and an expansion fee. Uh…yeah?

Yeah, but it wasn’t…we were charged $20 for it and it’s obvious with the tab being added even MORE transmog is going to be added to the shop…

Can they just stop nickle and diming their fanbase? They make more money than most gaming companies.

It’s setting a precedent of them charging us again for more in-game items. What do you think a greedy corporation who fired 800 employees despite making more than they thought they were going to do is going to do. Make a fun cool quest to obtain a set of armor? Or make it and charge their fan base $20 for it? I’ll give you all the time you need to answer.

Because our money which we already pay for the game is being put towards developing content for us…which they then are going to charge us for AGAIN? Just to make more money?

There’s a reason they stopped doing it for 7 years, because they faced such backlash.

Now a days I guess the fanbase just mindlessly gobbles up any and everything.

Careful, some ninny is going to come along and say “You can grind gold all day and earn them from buying wow tokens!” as if that’s remotely fun or how people want to spend their time playing a game for entertainment.

Not only a subscription, we pay expansion fees as well. We’re literally paying Blizzard to make this content for us to play and they’re taking it and making content and charging us MORE for it.

And expansion fees…

Yup, all because it’s “free” there was someone here who literally said “it doesn’t matter, it’s free!”
apparently completely ignoring the fact that It’s not just one transmog that’s going to be added. There’s literally a whole tab…

YOU’RE fine with being screwed over and having to farm gold for hours to afford items that should be in-game, that’s fine. Many people are not.

You’re right, they should strip covenant armor out of the in-game and charge $20 for each set in the shop. We’ve had 8 xpacks of mogs anyway! Any future armor set should cost $20 honestly. Tier set transmogs? $20, PvP armor transmogs?

It’s honestly mind boggling that people will literally defend this kind of stuff…

It’s a problem for many people who don’t like being charged for in-game content that they’ve already paid for. Imagine if we got a fun quest to obtain the gear from like the speculated murder mystery questline that was scrapped.

LOL I thought you were serious this whole time, 10/10 solid.

Yeah, selling us stuff that should be in-game content obtainable…

Imagine thinking that everyone should have to spend all their free time in WoW farming gold just so they can get basic armor sets that should be already in the game…YIKES.

Actually the forum is for whatever people want. I’m well within my rights to say “This is how I feel, no discussion needed”

This, and not only that, but you get gold passively for literally every activity in the game. You can make your own fun. It might take longer to get the transmog, but it’s not going anywhere.

It’s not like you have to buy it.

To some of us $20 is like a drop in the bucket.

If gold is the argument, why don’t they add it in game for gold?

If the item was on a vendor for 300k, what would that have changed?
