Whatever you do, don’t visit Walmart on December 26th.
That’s not what Karen behavior is. Karen behavior would be me demanding for more traders tender because i want to buy 3 more items. Something Selfish.
What i’m referring to in this post is just the general overall laziness of the items.
And yea. I would say it’s common sense to see someone mention something about weapons, then say items, and assume they would understand i’m refering to outfits mounts and other items. (Not a pet that was already available before)
As far as the ice/Frost theme. That’s separate from a SOLSTICE Theme. Sure it’s relative to the season, but that’s like saying we have plenty of red/pink outfits so we don’t need to do anything for valentines day. Or pumpkins are orange so we don’t need to do anything for thanksgiving. Or there’s plenty of druid sets so we don’t need to do anything for spring.
Christmas is the BIGGEST consumer holiday. Hence throwback memories of black friday sales from back in the day literally being insane, because parents wanted to stock up for a cheaper Christmas.
I’m not complaining that they aren’t EXACTLY what i want. I’m complaining that they don’t fit the theme. They could do solstice, winter, christmas, saturnalia, angels, WHATEVER. If it fit the theme more then it’d make more sense.
ok karen
its because the anniversary is in feburary so they released the valentines stuff early. winterveil is getting updated this year though so theres still a chance for you to get your christmas wish
Hopefully. Maybe they’re gonna save the some of the wintery stuff like parkas and sleds and snowy stuff for january.
Which is unsurprising really. Hallow’s End is extremely popular in WoW. Whilst… well, let’s just say that you messed up already, because you are talking about Christmas.
In WoW it is called Feast of Winter’s Veil.
Yes, of course it is inspired by Christmas but you aren’t playing “Christmas Simulator 5000” made by a German company. You are playing World of Warcraft, and the holidays are specific to WoW.
The winter event is you going to Orgrimmar or Ironforge, getting some quests, and then off to murder a yeti every now and then. That’s literally the full extent of the event. Folks like themes and style, not so much “go murder a random yeti that is a The Grinch reference.”
Regardless though, your point is still shot through if we just look at the trading post items:
This being a recolour of one of the most popular store items in recent time. 'nuff said.
This is what you get for having expectations when it comes to Blizzard. Best to have none.
My friends had said in chat yesterday that she wished there was a Christmas themed pet cat there. I felt like that was a good idea.
Things that I don’t get… why the Valentines recolors… and no ugly Christmas sweaters? … why a murloc romper… and not the yeti? …
December trading post is crazy tho
Yet we have candy cane swords because that’s…screaming World of Warcraft???
We literally have a “Tree Topper” Weapon. Bruh they’re doing christmas items.
And i’m not asking for “Christmas Simulator 5000”. But i am asking for some related cosmetics. like how i mentioned other things besides christmas. Maybe solstice themed. Maybe Scarves. More than just “Boots” which we got 1 pair of and admittedly are actually pretty nice.
There are snow boots, and pajamas which are a Christmasy thing too. Snow/wind themed items as well like crown of eternal winter. And a pet reindeer. Candy cane swords. A peppermint candy/wreath shield… A mace that is giant presents you beat people with. A christmas tree staff…
Lots of Christmas stuff really. Are you trolling?
Edit: Oh yeah, and there are even ear muffs too! And coldflame mount.
Essentially the only winter themed magical girl item. It’s the only blue color besides the wings. And even if you do what to
You still need to make sure you’re matching the theme of the season with ALL the items being offered. not 1 or 2.
Also it’s on the shop for 30$ not eh Traders post so your point is invalid
No no no sir.
OP has a point, this month’s trading post is pretty bad.
I have no idea what “magical girl” is supposed to mean.
… you were literally just complaining about a lack of christmas items in this thread, and disregarded the weapons. Which way do you want to do it?
Do you want to include the weapons thus you yourself destroying your own point, or do you want to ignore them and look for other types of customization options as examples? You can’t have the cake and eat it, so which is it.
So… the Feast of Winter Veil-themed weapons?
Or the really cute earmuffs?
How about the cool-coloured headgear, non-themed weaponry, tabard, cloaks, or boots?
There is stuff. All you are saying is “but it isn’t enough of exactly and precisely what I want!” That’s all there is to it.
Edit: Also, you can buy last year’s stuff as well. So you have even more options in that regard.
A pet that has been out for a while. A sword that was resized to make 2 other weapons.
Where are the new outfits.
The presents hammer and the boots and earmuffs are nice though.
But they should’ve added scarfs. Gloves. Maybe a winter related mount(coldflame i wouldn’t consider christmas/winter related, it’s cool but it’s not really anything more than a recolor.). It’s not “allot of christmasy things”
It’s resizes and reposts of what was already available for one of the biggest seasons of the year for consumerism and culture as a whole.
Define bad?
Even as recolors, they’re freebies by playing the easiest form of content.
We also aren’t playing “flying simulator” or “fishing simulator” or “pokemon simulator” or whatever silly argument people like to use to belittle the opinions of others.
