And it's not just that I prefer flying to using a ground mount, I actually hate using a ground mount after having flying for almost a decade. It's why I didn't bother with WoD until my account got it for free and I planned to do the same with Legion, but I had beta this time and I liked some things in Legion. Not enough to play it without flying. But if there's a price drop by the time 7.2 is headed for the PTR, I'll probably buy it then. And there will hopefully be easier to obtain catch up gear by then that will make some aspects of the achievement less annoying, like Suramar which I hated because it embodied all the worst aspects of no flying to me. Why they couldn't just make that place a no fly zone and open up flying in the other four zones after doing Loremaster for those zones, I personally won't ever understand. It would have been a decent compromise, a much better one than Pathfinder is.
I guess I'm a bit of a hypocrite though, because I bought a WoW token last week to get the anniversary pet from the limited time vendor. Meh. At least I didn't contribute to launch sales of Legion and I'll be unsubbed again after the month is up. The only thing I might do in the meantime is try to get the WotLK raid pets.
