    Heroic Achive mounts and such are one thing. That's a lack of drive or skill, but can still be attained at a later time, when you out level and overpower it. While buying something that people feel they already paid for is entirely another issue.

    Selling mounts and pets takes time away from the art team, the editing team, the coding team, the animation team, and such that SHOULD be going to fixing or making stuff that ISN'T exclusive material. Blizzard has stated over and over again, certain things don't get done because of others things. So a question is, what isn't getting fixed or added because this mount had to be made?

    I personally don't care, I'm not dropping 30$ for a fucking mount, when I don't use 95% of the 200 I already have and don't like. I don't care if it's exclusive, and I certainly don't care if someone else wants it. More power to them.

    Though, I can see why people might have a problem with the double dipping.
    i'm sorry that some people can't afford it but at the same time that's not my problem. and personally if you can't afford to spend $25-30 on something you want every few months as blizz releases a new store mount then maybe you shouldn't be spending $15 a month on a video game.

    So... in order for said button to affect me... I need to create a Death Knight and sit at the character selection screen?

    Sorry but this will be getting worse and worse.

    When we get old we gonna say "WHEN I USED TO BE YOUNG I USED TO ACTUALLY PLAY TO EARN THINGS IN GAMES!"

    Well im glad that youre not annoyed. Some people like me are afraid of the way the gaming is going now. It will be only a mather of time until we are forced to see a "SHOP" button before we enter instanced areas in a sub game.

    It's not only about the money. Its just Blizzard produces some cool stuff but they are sold with money but on the other side we have those awful mounts when we achieve 100, 150, 200 mounts achievements. It's reasonable that Blizzard is a company and making profit is the number one priority but making the cool stuff cost that much is just too much for a game that requires monthly fee to play. I pay 13euro already, give me what i deserve or at least be reasonable at pricing. This is not a pay to win game, right?

    some people like you overreact. i can almost guarantee that there will never be a shop button displayed on your screen before entering into an instance. you really need to come up with an argument that is actually plausible.

    Mounts should be available in some way or form within the game. It's about the same as rich kids showing off all their stuff when you know there is no way you can afford it.

    I don't care for mounts myself, I fully understand how frustrating it could be to see a new mount in front of you knowing you will never get it.

    Its very easy to argue about anything, especially when you have no desire in actually discussing it and just want to be contrary.

    This is a subject which is very easy to rile people up on both sides. Some really dislike store mounts, some can't fathom why someone would care. Both of those groups of people are very easy to provoke a response. So some do just to watch the drama.

    And this happens to be one of those subjects which has no quantifiable yes or no answer which means you can't "prove your point."

    Probably because they want them, but think $30 is a ripoff for the amount of creativity that goes into creating a mount that is put on the shop, or that it is just simply too much money to charge for something like a mount.

    Personally, I host house parties that cost less money in supplies than 2 store mounts do.

    There isn't much purpose to creating a thread to complain about another thread. You can post in the open thread, instead.
