Exactly.
$20 to the next person is a fortune…so how is that fair to THEM…even if B feels its fair to HIM, lol
‘what the market will bear’
Bliz figured we’d pay 90 bucks…so THAT is the price.

The WoW store, where mounts are priced $20-25. That isn’t an unreasonable ask for a mount.

thats how it works in this case, friend
If they believed we’d only pay 20 bucks thats what theyd have set it at.
And, I’m sorry. But, you’re wrong.
Creating from scratch? You’d be 100% correct.
This is about as far from that as you can possibly get.
Again; It still means nothing when it comes to setting price. And I’m still waiting for him to tell me who gets to decide what’s “excessive”.
no, Im sorry but Im not, lmao.
Ive literally done modeling in games with editors using existing models.
youre just ticked about the price and this is the next avenue of ranting and raving over the cost.

And, so have I.
The only thing modeled on that mount is the saddle. I can do that in 25-30 minutes.
And I’m ticked about the price? Lmao.
Might want to check my post history in this (and the related) threads.
That we agree on.
90 bucks is what they decided we’d pay, likely based on previous pricing and customer response.
90 is ‘lot’ but its not excessive.
Obviously, the answer you have in your mind is that excessive is subjective, right?
Fair. Everyone has a threshold for spending money. Some higher than others.
But frankly, I don’t think it should be contested amongst anyone that charging a mount nearly double the price of an expansion is too much. It is excessive, even if there are people willing to pay for it.
see the post you responded to…I responded and there is nothing left to add.
right…so YOU say it should only be $20…but to someone else $20 is a LOT of money…so maybe for THEM we need to drop the price to $10…or $5…lol
Not that Im against that.
If it were $5 id love that everyone could get it…but its 90 bucks…easily a ‘fair’ price given the context here that we’re gamers blowing time and money on digital nothing hobbies in the first place for entertainment.

it’s the same problem with the “mythic raid should be X people” argument. everyone thinks their choice of X is the only logical and reasonable one.

I don’t know – most of the prices in there seem unreasonable to me which is why I’ve purchased very little in pets/mounts/etc. The charity ones will prompt me more than anything else.
I am not able to tell you what the price of a mount should be for WoW since it is a for-profit gaming division of Microsoft. And let’s be fair, unless you work for Blizzard (and not some other company) you don’t either and no one does.
With that being said – You get to determine if there is value or worth in this optional, no required to purchase, not required to use, not required to play mount.
Coming here to complain about the price is not going to change the price.
Coming here to complain about FOMO is not going to change the marketing strats that corporations have used for years and everyone (including you) has fallen for at one time or another.
Coming here to complain about pay to win is nonsense – that is already 100% a thing. Tokens are pay to win (whether you publicly agree or not - they are).
The only thing people can do is not buy it if you don’t think it is of value, quit the game if you think it is in a state you no longer enjoy or is heading in a direction you don’t like.
People say oh, well feedback has made Blizzard change their minds – true enough - but this is no longer blizzard but Microsoft and let’s be honest – they really never changed their minds on anything that has this much protentional of revenue.

Probably not, but people pay for a subscription and are entitled to vocalize their discontent with the game however they please.
Of course – Everyone is allowed to show support or discontent as long as they don’t (and I am not saying you did or didn’t – just a general statement) get into name calling and other areas.

yes…you ARE…and I will always support your right as the consumer to scream at the company for whatever reason…BUT…
YOU havent just done that.
Youve attacked PLAYERS, calling them names and insulting their integrity and intelligence…and THAT is where your problem is
Well, that and giving money to a company you believe is ‘scummy’, which I find fairly questionable.

Liolang, I’m going to make this as succinct as possible because I don’t want to spend any more time on this matter:
I don’t care what you think. I don’t care about anything you have to say. I put you on block for a reason, yet you’ve spent the last two hours becoming the personification of the “old man yells at cloud” meme, screaming into the void while being largely ignored by the broader conversation.
I haven’t insulted anyone who already wasn’t making a fool of themselves towards others. If you don’t want to be insulted, I strongly suggest that you stop acting like a fool.
You’re just an annoying little troll who is either extremely bored or is mentally unwell, and I’m not sure which one is worse. Find something better to do with your time.
Or don’t, and continue shouting at the void. It’s not my time you’re wasting.
lying again? lol
NOTHING in this deranged attack was benign as your claiming, son.
youre insulting us for buying a mount and USING it, playing victim for merely SEEING our mount in game…obviously…and raging enough to insult and name call over it.
play your little denial games with someone who hasnt SEEN your personal rants in here.
mentally unwell…you mean like someone who isnt adult and mature enough to just accept the price is too high and and move along instead of calling everyeone fools who bought it and having some insane notion that if they pop the mount in game that theyre…how did you say it…" flaunts the mount like some sort of affluent luxury item", lmao
NO ONE is flaunting son…we are USING our mount…there is no conspiracy here to make you whine about it.
