For me the appeal will lie in what sort of non-transmog/appearance "stuff" can be obtained. Transmog is fine and I know a ton of people like it, though I am not one of them. I usually pick a set and stick with it forever, per character.
Would be cool if this didn't take away from the mount achievements, which is behind multiple xpacks now. Most collectors have over 700 mounts and the achievement only goes up to 500? Seems like anything new is just going into Trading Post.
I look forward to the feature as much as anyone else, but man they really had to make the trailer have a pay to win feeling. Don't be an idiot and tell me it's not pay to win, as that much is common knowledge to pretty much everyone at this point, but the trailer FEELS like one you'd get in a pay to win game. The trading post is a battle pass with significantly more forgiving and numerous options for receiving progress, just without the premium bar alongside the free bar. This trailer absolutely had the same energy as a crappy mobile game trying to hype you up for the best rewards when you won't get them without paying. The trading post is setting up to be the only GOOD battle pass in recent years, and it absolutely needs to stay good. Even if it just ends up having recolored drakes, the fact remains that it's free, easy to complete, and has rewards that carry over.I'll quit for good if they put a paid battle pass in the Trading Post. I can just marginally tolerate paying to get extra progress, but if they ever have a premium side to the trading post, I can finally be free of the addiction. Even if it's 'free' with gold and tokens, I'm still gonna peace out if that ever happens.
I assume it is going to be some kind of monthly rotating stock. Hopefully so, because I WANT ALL THE THINGS!Great feature peeps. Keep up the solid effort this expac!
