    Wow, another mount you spend cash on instead of earning in game, amazing!
    This isn't the same company. They are not in touch with the playerbase, they are hellbent on profit, and yea companies deserve profit, but not at the cost of the health of the game, and they became their own worst enemy. WoW was special not because of vanilla, bc, or wrath. No nostalgia here. It was special because of Blizzards involvement with the community, which is all but lost now. They changed everything into the least possible communication with the community.

    They are on budget constraints.

    Essentially they need to bring in more $$ with the existing customer base. So in comes microtransactions!

    Expect a few dozen more additions !

    not going to be buying it but technically you can still get it in game.. you just need to convert gold to balance.. so everything can be gained from playing the game now. However I would prefer that most if not all things were actually in game items you have to earn.

    I love these polarizing sides of the community.
    Shop gets all the unique mounts, no unique mounts in game
    Look at this shitty redskin store mount lol

    I'm losing interest in WoW with all these micro-transactions.

    I like RPG's where you earn what you have. Not buy them.?

    I mean how important is a mount you purchased with REAL money? ... ?

    It says something about the rider .. but I don't think it's the feedback the rider wants to hear.

    Except they have been selling store mounts since wotlk so idk what the fuck your talking about.

    The team that makes mounts is not the same team that balances the game.

    Would you rather it be on a vendor for 125k?

    So guess you haven't heard of the aow token, cause I earned my recent 6 month sub through selling stuff on the AH and farming... So idk about you, but I havnt paid for anything wow since the garrison in WoD. So maybe you just suck at the game?

    I mean, good thing looks are subjective, since There are plenty of Mounts from in game I prefer to any of the Store mounts.

    I was going to say the same thing. Wings on mounts like this, the Quilen, and the Runesaber just make it look gaudy. I would have preferred if it just had magic floating beneath it while it flies, like the Windsteed's clouds.
    3 hints to surviving MMO-C forums:
    1.) If you have an opinion, someone will say that it is wrong
    2.) If you have a source, there will be people who refuse to believe it
    3.) If you use logic, it will be largely ignored
    btw: Spires of Arak = Arakkoa.

    You and me both...

    I liked the chinese dog thing because it didn't have any wings. It was just a dog which walks through the sky... The only thing about this one is that they decided to scale it up and now everyone's legs clip through the thing and just makes it look horrible... So I guess after that one I'm not feeling like paying for any mount anymore though :|

    Mounts are gameplay at this point. Many only play to collect cosmetic rewards. To them, buying straight up BIS gear matters less than being able to buy a mount. I got one actual friend who is like this.

    But .. they have been losing subs ever since the Tears of Noobs mount was created during WotLK.

    Adding cash-shop only mounts is not a sign of growth, put it that way.

    If adding microtransactions is infact a signal for prosperity, let me know!

    If seems like a cash-grab, dooming active player future participation though, IMO.

    Micro-transactions are the cancer of the gaming industry.

    If you buy this, you're a spastic.

    I'd much rather have it be rewarded from aotc or something, but yeah would much rather it be on a vendor than in the store.
    This isn't the same company. They are not in touch with the playerbase, they are hellbent on profit, and yea companies deserve profit, but not at the cost of the health of the game, and they became their own worst enemy. WoW was special not because of vanilla, bc, or wrath. No nostalgia here. It was special because of Blizzards involvement with the community, which is all but lost now.

    IT. IS. SO. FLUFFYYYYYYYYYYY! I'm not really into Store mounts but damn this one is cool. I wonder if the aesthetic has any link to the content of the next expansion, as Store mounts often do, or if it's just a random flying arctic fox.

    cash shop.

    Essentially the Celestrial Steed.

    A steed far more impressive than one person can ever loot. You ride upon PERFERCTION. You ride upon the Tears of Noobs.
