orcishgamer: Wooah, they straight up sell pets on their website now:
http://us.blizzard.com/store/details.xml?id=1100002356 That's like putting microtransactions in a premium game, isn't it? Only that fire kitty pet is 10 freaking dollars!
Wow, didn't know WOW was in such a state, hurting bad are they?
EDIT: Fire kitty is a bad example as apparent the money for that, at least some of it, went to charity. So good on them, however, I think the point still stands, they're selling mounts for 25 dollars...
Naw, WoW isn't hurting at all. It's been busy since Mists of Pandaria. They've been selling mounts and pets for quite a while now, at least over a year if not two. They started with a mount and people bought that up so they kept going with more, etc. The store bought mounts and pets are pretty popular too. I see them in game a lot.
I would agree the prices for those things are crazy but apparently the market will bear those prices so...
