Why allow the vanilla CE pets, but not Murky Blizzard?
It kinda reeks of favorite child syndrome.
BOTH were the iconic pets from vanilla, both were part of vanilla for pretty much the entire experience. They both belong.
This isn’t a “take their pets” post; i WANT the vanilla CE pet owners to have their pets. They deserve them, i wish i had them then and still do now.
But why are Murky owners told to go kick rocks, or left out? Murky was from the very first Blizzcon, and he was part of vanilla for most of the experience. Why leave him out?
We know who has him or not through the way the coding works now (via pet system, across the account, which the system will instantly recognize when you log into classic. it’s the same way the vanilla CE pet owners have them) so why not let Murky owners have their pet too?
There aren’t many of us Murky owners left, so i don’t expect too many people to care… but plz Blizz; let Murky owners bring him back for Classic. He was part of vanilla, after all, and leaving him out would be a negative change.
He isn’t the TCG items that were added pre-tbc, they don’t belong as much as i’d selfishly like to have them.
Murky, and the vanilla CE pets, belong in classic as they were part of vanilla. Why allow one, but not the other?
Look, with all the fires the Classic team is trying to put out with 30 days and counting, Murky is about as low priority as they come. Why don’t you ask the broken hunters if they’d be okay with their class fixes being set aside so that Murky the pet can be brought back to life.
No one ever said it was priority one, and i never painted it as that.
But it should be fixed, and it is an injustice that Murky is left out but the vanilla CE pets left in.
Your name is hashnochange… so you should understand that leaving Murky out IS a negative change.
if the vanilla CE pets weren’t included, this wouldn’t have even come up; but letting one set of CE pets in, but not the other during the same vanilla period oozes Blizzard playing favorite child syndrome.
smh right back at you.
EDIT: for the record, this would take all of 60 seconds for them to fix. It isn’t a big fix for them. The system is already there to support the vanilla CE pets. Blizzard’s backend systems know who has what. Who the hell does it hurt if a dev takes 30 seconds out of their day to unlock Murky for Murky owners?
I knew there wouldn’t be many people sympathetic to this when posting. No one is gonna care about a 15 year old cosmetic pet unless they have it, and there are so few of us Murky owners left…
If the vanilla CE pets weren’t included i would understand it as a complete fresh start ya know? but since the vanilla CE pets were included; why NOT Murky? Murky was part of vanilla too just as much.
I’m not trying to have their pets taken away; but why let A in, but tell B to kick rocks when BOTH were iconic to vanilla?
it just doesn’t make sense. I admit that it’s low priority for blizzard obviously, but it is also legit a 1 button click for them to fix considering the system is already in place to support the vanilla CE pets. Someone could fix it while on their lunch break, he is already in the code.
honestly, if the vanilla CE pets weren’t included i’d understand the fresh start blah blah and move on.
But i can’t understand why letting vanilla CE pets in, but not Murky when both were in vanilla. I don’t want their pets removed, i’d rather Murky be let in. How many of us Murky owners are even left, after all? I bet less than 100.
Please post your game/system development professional experience as to how you came to this conclusion. It’ll take at least 10 hours of emails and stand-up meetings before a decision is even made to attempt to do this.
Funny gif, but nowhere did i demand or threaten not to play etc.
It’s just a rational discussion that needs Blizzard’s attention.
Let me ask you… Why not? Murky was already in vanilla, he exists in the current classic code, and blizzard knows who has him. Who does it hurt to allow the 100+ people worldwide still playing WoW, with Murky, to continue to show their support 15 years later?
The vanilla CE pets got in; why not Murky when both were in classic? Can you give me a logical argument of why not or are you just gonna troll?
