This "new blizzard" full of stupid millenials that work/dev at blizzard now always makes jabs at their gamerbase. Every year or so we see a few slight things that are obviously what they think of their gamers. I guess this is this year's slap.
The only way this makes any real sense is if they have essentially "given up" on "current" WoW and this is part of a final squeeze of the subscribers that are left. And that they are pining their hopes on vanilla going forward.
They can't - surely - be thinking of allowing all these mounts in vanilla ..... then again .....
Oh dear, apparently you get this mount free in china if you buy a 6 month sub.
Getting harder and harder to believe Activision isn't taking note of the direction WoW headed reference the release of BfA, and is eagerly trying to staunch the wound.
Trash game,, demolishing everything that was High fantasy Wow- and has now turned into a cultural anthem for various mythologies a cluster fuck at Best
The mount and pet is a one time thing for charity so its all fine.....
But that's not what this is. This is a one-time, single mount for $25.
The charity pet last year was Whomper with all proceeds from its $10 price tag going to charity through December 31st.
Was more a comment on how blizzard introduced their cash shop ages back, its only a one time thing for charity so its all fine.
They didn't announce it like that though. The cash shop was introduced with the ugly celestial mount back in 2010 from what I remember (and I own one because my friend wanted some gold at one point). That was not a charity mount.
Didnt read all the comments or newspage. But isnt this pig for the guys in China (year of the pig) and we can do "enjoy" it aswell?
But ofc like all the others stuff in the cash shop its overpriced and it would be better to get it ingame as an event and put it later on when the event is closed for a few euros.
@Blizzard@World of Warcraft Sadly instead of taking the time to actually FIX the classes so the specs mean something again they decided to waste all our time on creating a mount for their shop. Uhm you should be getting enough from monthly subscriptions to actually fix the classes and if you need help with that hire more people you have the funds.
Mutant Master Splinter is what this mount makes me think of too. I always thought someone at Blizz really didn't like TMNT and this was their revenge.
This is gonna be unpopular, but as a person who currently owns two pet rats and has learned a great deal about the animals.. A rat, if it were large enough to compare, would actually be far superior even to a horse as a war mount
Leagues smarter than a horse, easily trainable, and can do a surprising amount of damage with their teeth and claws in very short order. The hardest part would be making them mean enough to actually attack on command to use said natural weaponry. Their nature contains almost zero aggression unless it's territorial with their own, instead almost fully being made up of timid curiosity about things that don't look like themselves.
I also worked with lab rats, they are pretty damn docile, gentle, and actually cute.
It's the fucking mice that are "rat bastards" .
Honestly, the worst part about owning them are, unfortunately, how short-lived they are.
I've been bitten exactly twice in over a year of owning them: Lincoln once got my finger instead of the treat in my hand one time, and Lucky bit my finger in his death throes. Still not sure if he actually even realized what he was doing.
Yea, I've become a huge fan of these highly misunderstood animals.
And you're right: mice (and hamsters) are kinda the assholes of the rodent order.

I think Shaigh was just being sarcastic but it was hard to tell...
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

If they lose another slice - rasher! - of subs due to them being fed a steady diet of mounts though then I doubt it will be Blizzard laughing.

You can see my sci-fi/WW2 book recommendations.

But I'm biased, I think.
