The Advantages of Transmog Outweigh the disadvantages
Transmog Ruined a small part of the game
I voted the first option but only because the disadvantage for me is im actually playing more due to wanting to get transmog pieces. Also i play a hunter and most of the hunter tiers are shit so if i still looked like the rainbow clown puked on me i probably would not be playing.
EDIT:
Also, saying that excitement is reduced from obtaining new items is fucking stupid, i would not feel any better if i looked like a rainbow hobo going into an expansion

Out of all the changes over the years in WoW, Transmog really seems like it's at the very bottom of things to complain about. Really, it's one of the most lauded over features and I see absolutely zero downsides to it.
Didn't vote. This poll is so biased. There's absolutely no disadvantages with transmog for me.
Maybe if i put the letters big. I'm desperate at this point. There is nothing more simple than this to understand.
If at the beginning of the expansion you have a transmog you like better than any tier released in the new expansion >>> You will spend the rest of the expansion without being excited about any new item
"looks-wise"
Is this not a easy fact to understand?
If the only reason you play the game is to "Get powerful" or "Look good" then I feel sorry for you. You've no friends in game, don't belong to a guild you like? I, like many others, play the came for camaraderie of those I've met over the years playing. Our goal is to Clear content while it's current, and have fun with each other while doing it. Gear.... just makes it easier. Many of us have found even stronger bonds because of Transmogging. Helping each other out when we find we need that one last thing to make it look Epic... but can't figure it out... or need help in getting the object, be it, Crafting, or still "unsoloable content".
It's not so much that transmog ruined it but the lack of creativity coming from the design team.
The art direction in regards to most new sets are very hit or miss I find, Yes, I know this is subjective, however, it seems to me that for every new tier there is maybe 2 really nice sets and the rest are lack luster.
Who gives a fuck if you don't get excited for new items because of the looks? People have always been excited about new items because of the effect on their performance. This is a terrible argument.

No, it fucking was not.

I see you are now using another's picture, that was used against you in the argument at first, when you 1st claimed that BiS gear always matched, cropped down, and removed from the original post. Right there is an example of a BiS DPS warrior during Vanilla, probably hoping to get into Naxx. Sure as hell doesn't looked matched to me.
Poll is stupidily biased. You aren't fooling anyone.
Here is my vote:
There are 0 disadvantages
Exactly. If new gear looks cool, I'll be excited for it cause I can have it's appearance forever. if the new gear looks like crap, I wouldn't have been excited for it without transmog, at least now it's less annoying that it's hideous cause I can make it look good via xmog.
So, as for your poll, I am voting the same as the person above me:There are 0 disadvantages
Transmogging allows me to enjoy the stats and procs/bonuses of new gear without the unfortunate "...but it looks horrible"-clause, since i can make it match the rest of my outfit, it doesn't diminish the thrill of new gear at all...
