totally agree.
its either worth it to you personally…or it isnt.
ive bought a LOT of stuff for my hobbies that people think Im nuts for spending as much $$$ as I have.
But I wanted it and, as you and your wife obviously, I had the money to spend.
THAT is really all this comes down to. Desire for the item…and the ability to pay for it.
Nothing this raging and name calling should have resulted in here…but this IS a circus show most days, so here we are lol
Not being able to afford something and not seeing it as valuable as it has been priced are two completely separate things. Most people that have gone to university would be able to mentally step back and think about the fact they’re purchasing pixels at $90 a pop when the chances of them re-releasing this thing on the trader’s post in the near future for free is a huge possibility By the way if you’re referring to business school as a professional diploma, yikes.
Best part is, if they are farming gold for tokens, then they could just farm the gold to buy the tokens to then turn around and buy the mount with that. At the current token prices (last I checked) it is only around 1 - 1.5 mil. Which is WAY cheaper than the original mount was. Of course, the tokens sold out because that’s how most people bought it on release day, but it’s still the option.
LOL right here …I brought the first one Day 1 of BfA going live…I brought this one too…with gold matter fact…I love it …glad the brought this out for those that couldn’t get the first one which should of never been removed from the game in the First place…it was damn wrong of Blizzard to remove the first one …
like YOU are purchasing pixels every month and every expansion ?
it was what…five years from Bruto 1 to bruto 2?
HARD PASS on waiting 5 more years HOPING it’ll show up on the post when I CAN AFFORD to buy it NOW. lmao
It really is that simple. EVERYTHING for sale right now (besides gold) is for cosmetic purposes. They can easily raise enough gold to purchase it themselves or wait for the OG Brutosaur to come to the Black Market AH. It hurts NO ONES gaming experience if people use their real life money for mounts and cosmetics.
Glad to see there are some rational people on these forums =)
You missed something. The original Longboi mount requires like 5 Million Gold (not sure). It’s like it’s worth 20 to 25 WoW Tokens… like $400+.
And this new one is just $90. It’s a steal. But you are a new Tourist. What do you know?
To me, the Mount is still redundant as Blizz gave us an Auction House in Dorn. If Dorn dont have an Auction House, AH mount would be a Must. But Dorn has AH… making an AH mount not that useful.
fantastic!
If it is, kudos to you for holding out.
If not…sucks to be anyone who didnt buy it if they wanted it and hoped Ion would change his ways lol
EITHER way, Im perfectly happy with buying the two I got NOW…
lawl the brutosaur cash shop deal is for some exec(s) to get his bonus pay
this team will sell out anything in wow, prolly dying to sell power upgrades on the cash shop but the team keeps pushing back saying it’ll destroy the game
all it takes is one executive with a short term mentality to break anything in wow
And if it does show up someday in the trading post, not 2 dirty words are to be given as far as I am concerned. Go for it, I have mine now and happy with as I used it every day and every time I log in.
Don’t see any point why you all are so worried about what other people pay for and with how they pay for it so much. Its not your money or gold. You do not have a say in their lives nor get to tell them how they should manage their finances in game or out of it. Clearly when I have way over 10 million gold in the game, I care nothing about 1.2 million spent on a mount. Its chump change, simple as all that. I make it back in a month of a little effort and grinding, playing some on the AH, ohh the whole reason I got the mount in the 1st place so I wouldn’t need to run back n forth to the city just to post on the AH or get mail. What a earth shattering thought.
If 2 months, 3 months, 6 months or 2 years down the road you get it off at half price or even the BMAH or the trading post for other currency, no one that has it now cares. We will be happy for you that you managed to held out for a deal or price you could live with.
This is not just a reply to just this person but all who are so sweaty about those of us who actually got the mount one way or the other and are trying to somehow spin it that we will all regrate it at some point.
Asmondgold is so out of touch with retail WoW, and admits he will never seriously play it ever again, He only uses it as click bait when something worth it happens. Logs in for a few minutes does his spill, then poof. Hardly someone I would say has the heartbeat of the average WoW player and the pulse of what is going on now days in retail. And by the way as much as he has in the past complained about things in the store, he sure owns a lot of them. lol, its called being a hypocrite and a big talker on the stream.
You can 100% buy this mount with gold you make in-game.
That’s the entire point of the token system. Players who don’t have the ability to make gold can buy tokens. Those who have the ability to make gold can convert it to Bnet Balance through tokens and purchase things like this mount.
Are you someone that can’t make gold AND can’t buy tokens? That’s a YOU problem.
lol…probably not much given some of the educated MORONS Ive got around here lol.
I know one who thinks hes Einstein who swore he knew how to fix some plumbing issue he had recently…and then proceeded to buy the entirely WRONG part that had nothing to do with the actual problem lol.
Thankfully he didnt open it and was able to return it when the actual problem was fixed.
MOST of the ‘educated’ sorts Ive run into I wouldnt trust with a bottle of glue for fear theyd glue their own hand to their face lol
Interesting – Your monthly sub fee included an additional fee on top for an optional mount you are not required to buy? I think I’d submit a billing error ticket.
