    LOL

    It can also just be that you will find a million dollars under your pillow the next morning. Noone can know for sure, right, eh, eh?

    The build with the fixes that you are talking about doesn't exist.

    How quickly people forgot about him after the first few weeks. I swear to god/fsm, I'll never let anyone forget about Karaspiregate.

    Nice to see their priorities are in order.

    They will never respond. Why should they?

    They already did, just not to anyone's satisfaction.

    The thing I don't get is why they charge so much for them, they don't realize if they made the mounts 5$ they would get 10X the sales, they would make way more money off of the mounts for that price point because the amount of people who would buy it would exponentially increase.

    They're a vanity thing, people buy them because of exclusivity, so there's actually a limited, finite market to begin with. If the price is set too low, then it calls in to question as to why bother with the price to begin with, which is probably harder to argue. Ultimately, cutting the price by 75% assumes at least a four fold increase in sales to reach the same profit, I think that's unlikely, I doubt that even a 50% cut would result in doubling the sales. Clearly, they did their research and $20 is somewhere around that optimal balance between sales and pricing.

    Well I know if it was even 10$ I would be much more likely to buy it. When they went on sale last time I bought one for all my friends. I don't think the special snowflake thing applies, it is all based on peoples taste.

    It absolutely is about taste, which is why I've only bought the Enchanted Fey Dragon. Again, that's why the market is finite for each one. Would halving the price drive more sales? Probably. Would it get you double the sales to get the same profit? Probably not.

    Anyhow, way off topic now.

    There were more tweets. There were a lot of people who responded with things like "sure you don't have the resources, you spend it on mounts for the store". Really quite a lot. Made me smile.

    They can put stuff on the cash shop but they can't make pvp mounts.

    Cash shop mounts make them money, PvP mounts do not. Making cash shop mounts should be a priority for them.

    Ya but the argument that the Cash shop doesn't take anything away from the game kinda goes away when they make that kind of claim.
