All the trust is now gone

[Heartbreakér-nethergarde-keep]

I am extremely happy WoW have brought out a new and improved Bruto I’ve been trying to get gold cap to camp the BMAH for a little while now, this saves me having to do this, and I finally own a Bruto I will get the old one eventually, I dont even want them for the AH, just love the mount, so thank you WoW, £60 done, and happy customer

I also love the whining, and comments of the crying babies who can’t afford it, or the ones who thought they were amazing for having the original one keep it going, its such a laugh reading them

I’m just saying that if the money that Blizzard gets from the stores becomes so much more important than the subs

It’s already is, there is mount that was sold better than entire sc2 wings of liberty (only wings of liberty though) it was in period of MoP

@Aebar-dalaran

As a matter of fact, if you look at the amount of content in an expansion nowadays versus WotLK/BC days, there is already a big difference (e.g. number of dungeons, raid bosses).

It’s always a very fun subject to me because people like to select convenient to their point numbers but absolutely ignore how much more mechanics current dungeons and bosses have, and how little the gaps between content release became.

I’m pretty happy when Blizzard makes more money on WoW because it means that more resources will be dedicated to the game and it’ll stay relevant for longer.

Oh sweet summer child.

Wait spit is gone?
I hadn’t even notice.
Don’t they dare take my /violin and /bonk.

@Jito-turalyon

And I think WoW is moving in that direction as well.

14 years of moving slowly slowly slowly slowly slowly (slowly) towards store-driven f2p
With enough dooming it will come true sooner or later!

@Jito-turalyon

Blizzard don’t make most of their money by selling the game to a wide audience or raking in those subscription money from millions and millions of players

I didn’t manage to find any info regarding what brings for them more revenue so i guess it’s another case of “trust me bro”
Though it’s irrelevant because those who pay for store mounts also have active sub.

@Jito-turalyon

The game itself sees less content patches

I can’t even call it exaggeration, it’s straight up lie.
I’m sorry, if it’s less, then what the hell is mop, sl and wotlk content droughts were, are you making up things to enforce argument, again?

• Spit is removed
• the /joke were all removed cause it offended people
• The paintings ingame have been removed cause it offended people

And there’s probably many more things removed that people have already forgotten about.

[Dralkharn-draenor]

I constantly spam /joke and my character jokes.

I constantly spam /joke and my character jokes.

But not the same jokes anymore.

Kill Two Dwarves

[Angelnl-argent-dawn (Angelnl)]

Well that’s a bloody shame.
I kill whole species for a better sword but /spit is offensive? Wut.
Same with everything else tbh.
I made a ton of dk’s since wrath and all of em have a pile of at least 50 crusader skulls In Their bank.
Shouldn’t that be worse than a few paintings?

That’s a matter of perception and temper I think.

For me personally, WoW already comes off as a free-to-play game with all the monetization that goes along with that territory. It just tries to hide that reality beneath a shell of premium box content and a subscription and roadmap and such.

It’s of course in the eye of the beholder, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable to say that the sentiment toward the game is increasingly souring for more than a few.

I’ll certainly stand by saying that WoW gets less content patches today than it used to in the past.
The third content patch of Dragonflight was cut short in favor of a fourth Season, and Blizzard have switched to a minor → minor → major schedule, rather than minor → major.
And I’ll argue that there’s less in the patches as well. Hell will freeze over before Blizzard does another Nazjatar + Mechagon patch.

[Thalstarion-argent-dawn]

It’s the nature of the industry these days. Every major MMO and even many single player games are loaded with optional cosmetics. I do think at least some of the complaints would cease if there weren’t any time limited cosmetics being sold.

The sad truth is that people simply cannot be responsible anymore, or take a joke.

[Nemmar-eonar (Nemmar)]

Huhh… no. More sources will be dedicated to the shop.

[Broduin-silvermoon]

They gotta farm the financially irresponsible players

[Magicalgírl-outland]

I didn’t buy early access and I won’t be buying this mount. However, I have a years subscription and two appearances from the store.
People have to judge the value of each purchase.

[Epanovic-drakthul]

I buy early access but my guild is dead so dont see focus on wow.

[Bearstance-ghostlands]

Well they kind of are lmao, your gold = buy a token = store credit = mount? I mean what more of a explanation you need?

[Bullyybeef-magtheridon]

No issue with them selling items on the store, heck, throw the price up, idiots will buy it.

My issue is, they’ve intentionally made it so theres no in-game alternative. No toy to access the auction house (like you can with transmog, mailbox and repair).

There should always be a reasonably accessible ingame version.

[Cunix-turalyon]

None of the money made will go to dev time so yeah that delul

[Ásunà-silvermoon]

The brutosaur is such a good mount, well worth my money.

Just do the math, the older version costs more and looks worse and doesn’t have a mailbox
