    What about the people that spend real money on cards to get in-game loot? Were they ever an issue to people who don't like this?

    NO it does not. THe last 6 month deal is running out. Time to offer something new. It has ZERO to do with when they expect Shadowlands to release which is still this year.

    its literally been exactly 6 months since the last one... it has nothing to do with shadowlands being late, its just every 6 months they do one of these for literally 2 years now.

    idk why people think this is bullshit but were fine with collectors edition pets, and TCG pets/mounts/toys that have all been around since vanilla.

    This was already cooked up before the delay, most likely.

    It was set to drop the week before to get all the prepatch folks to buy another 6 months.

    It's also available in the new "TRANSMOGS" tab for 20 bucks, I assume that part was done after the fact since the game isn't launching til later this year. My guess? There will be another 6 month purchase closer to the actual release date.

    Really? If you have a recurring 6 month sub you get a free mount January and July. You might’ve missed the cut off for July’s one

    umm do you get this for recurring 3 month sub too?

    No, it's a 6 month or nothing, if you don't buy it ala carte from the shop in the transmog tab. They'd rather have your guaranteed money and 6 months of playtime than getting MORE money over 6 months with the option to quit playing their game if (more like, when) it launches broken and terrible.

    Case in point:
    So because you play the game and enjoy it means you are a sucker?

    You only get it free with 6 month. Or you can buy it separately for $20

    1. no they do these literally every 6 months for 2 years now, so there is not gunna be another in a "couple months" another in 6 months
    2. its available to buy right out for those who dont want 6 months of sub, did the same with.. .again all the last 6 month subs

    Enjoy the future when more effort is put into transmog sets on the store as opposed to raid and pvp sets
    Awww so you got caught out copying word for word a streamers thoughts on this, proving you’re incapable of thinking for yourself, and yet you’re calling people pathetic? Really? Fucking really?

    For a limited time*, when you sign up for a 6-month subscription to World of Warcraft, you’ll also receive the gift of the Sprite Darter’s Wings, immediately available in your in-game appearance collection. If you’re currently on a 6-month recurring subscription with a future renewal date, you’ll receive Sprite Darter’s Wings as a gift in your Battle.net desktop app at no additional charge no later than October 30, 2020 (must be redeemed by April 30, 2021). for those with 6 month sub

    Fun fact, the Blizzard store came about because of those cards. It was because Blizzard were not getting 100% royalties from the company making the WoW TCG at the time and were instead just in a partnership. So Blizzard started their own in game shop to sell items so they could claim the full profit and cut out any middle man.

    Not relevant to the topic but I thought I'd mention. I partly blame those TCG cards that started it, but we know its mostly company greed and the following of trends from market research and shareholders telling companies 'we need to make more money'. So they drop these little breadcrumbs in to get people invested.

    As I said before I aint even bothered by this item being in the shop. I stopped moaning about microtransactions in Blizzard games back in WoD, I think the piece looks lovely. Not sure i'd personally wear it... doesn't really suit any class or race. :P

    Pretty sure Dreadwake was not immediately available for purchase.

    I don't understand why like 3 people in this thread have pounced at this dude when what he said isn't exactly a big leap of logic...
