I did it for the sylverian dreamer and end up only playing the azshara for a month not doing this again.
A subscription is paying to access their game servers and future content updates. You have already paid a box purchase price on the expansion. There are no future content updates coming until Shadowlands. This has been confirmed with the lead designer in an interview. Which also requires another minimum $60 investment.
It's really not hard to see what they're doing here. They didn't need to set up a 6 month promotion for this mount, they could have just sold it for $25 in the cash shop as normal.
But no - they know 8.3 is light on content so they're trying to lock as many people in as possible. This is basic scumbag strategy and the addicts eat it up.
whenever i see a new storemount i hear "REEEEEE" in the distance
can I buy 6 months of game time with blizzard bucks and get this?
But it IS in the cash shop. That is 100% an option. Not to mention, it's a cute rat...not some super cool new dragon or w/e.
Literally the only reason to "fall" for this, is because you want to. Or you're already on the 6month sub. Not really anything "dirty" happening here.
I said "probably not". Do you know what probably means?
I am basing my assumptions off of every other patch in BfA which has had shit reward structures and incredibly shit class design.
Once we complete the Heroic Raid which will "probably" take 4-8 weeks then I'll be done with the patch.
The Visions get easy and old really quickly once you start filling out the research tree and/or getting gear. It's nothing like the Mage Tower as it isn't different on different specs or classes.
Let's be honest here. Islands and Warfronts suck. Are people still arguing they don't? Lmfao. You also didn't get any NEW islands or NEW warfronts added. Mythic+ is the same as it always was with no new dungeons added but hey at least the new affix is better than 8.2 right? Where's the EXPANDED content?
Visions don't get "different and more challenging over time". They are literally the same every time. You can activate a mask to add an "affix" to make it harder. But it's the same damn content. Also.... They get easier over time, with a tech tree that is time-gated and corruption resistance on the cloak and new gear.
See how I don't just make baseless claims and back my claims up with reasoning, personal opinion and facts? You should try it.

Exactly what I've predicted they would do for 8.3 LMAO and suckers will still fall for it. And look at the thumbs down for that video lol
I hate it when they pull mounts completely illogical out of wows lore. I understand most of the mounts but ones like this rat really pisses me off. Thats like some p2w-f2p mmo tactics, putting some badass, cute etc out of world creatures as mounts. I pass on this one.
No, access is separate from the game. Sorry (not really) that this little fact completely detracts the narrative you want to present but facts, like the Honey Badger, don't give a shit.
Oh, and Shadowlands requires $40. They've returned to the old pricing scheme and dropped the boost.
Yeah, they're incentivizing giving us cheaper per month subscription rates. If you don't want it for free then pay $25 for it later from the shop or don't buy it at all.It's really not hard to see what they're doing here. They didn't need to set up a 6 month promotion for this mount, they could have just sold it for $25 in the cash shop as normal.
It's $60 AUD. Sorry(not really). The price didn't drop for us. I recall paying $60 or $70 for the game WITH a boost previously. Now I don't get that.
They're anticipating mass un-subs. 8.3 has very little content and BfA is already a failure. It's quite obvious they pulled all development off BfA. Lack of content in 8.3 and no 8.3.5 patch? Hmmmm.
@Kiri I mean no attack on blizzard. really their art team is great. It is just not my taste. Like I hate all those collaboration events in many smartphone games. The characters that appear has no place in the games world. Something like this mount. I understand their reasoning and I try to look at it in a positive way, like a cultural thing, going universal etc not OMG ACTIBLIZZ GREED. As people suggested I think these mounts should be tied to quests for lunar festival. Mehh, anyway, enjoy your rodent people.
btw dem downvotes on youtube lol. understandable.
