    Just a random rant about the in-game store. I think it's a good thing to have that. BUT release transmogable helms that I''ve rarely seen anyone with on Kargath is necessarily a good thing. In my opinion, BoA transmog helms aren't needed. XP boost potions should be for Valor or Justice Points so it doesn't turn this game into a pay to level up since there in technically no pay to win option. I've used the store for mounts and that's about it, but I'm not wasting money on potions when I already have 3 sets of BoA gear. But in some peoples eyes, the XP boost potions and transmog are transforming WoW into a cash cow, and I don't think that's right.

    Anybody feel the same?

    I personally feel this is terrible when one has to put his/her wallet on this game

    I think it's the beginning of the end for WoW. Cosmetic things are ok, such as name changes, race changes, etc., but I feel that once people are using the ingame store to buy XP boosts, level ups, and more, the game is basically pay-to-win status. Blizzard recently announced that you will be able to buy a level capped character in WoD.

    I'm also against being able to purchase level capped characters and xp boosts. If they want to go down that path then I think Blizzard should just make the game F2P.

    I really don't like any kind of in-game purchase system. New players will be able to level just by paying which decreases game quality.
    It seems to me that Blizzard is trying to get the last money out of WoW.

    I remember years back Blizzard said they would eventually make the game F2p. They still have a lot of subscribers so it won't happen suddenly, but it will probably happen.

    I agree, and that is why this game is losing a lot of its subscribers, even with it's new releases coming out soon, I honestly don't see it improving at all.
