I thought this was a joke but it seems like it’s actually legit. WoW, which has a subscription and paid expansions, just added a $90 item to their store. This is Korean MMO levels of absurdity. What do you think of this?

Seems like hundreds of people bought it immediately

    The other (not so bad) thing I don’t like about it is that…I hate those mounts. They’re HUGE and people just AFK on them blocking NPCs I want to talk to.

    TFW the year is 2024 AD and blizzard still has not properly addressed this

      Important NPCs have a dismount aura but if they have that to any NPC with dialogue, you’d get dismounted a hundred times a day

        Oh yeah, I actually remember that from the last time I relapsed (Legion). I was wondering if I hallucinated that workaround… But it’s still just that : a stupid workaround. It baffles me that it is seemingly impossible for them to implement a keybind that targets the nearest “interactive” npc in range

            Hmmm, okay. Added in dragonflight, apparently.

            Well I guess I can finally shut up about this incredibly minor issue

          Even if that didn’t come with a bunch of annoying downsides, how would that solve the problem better than dismount auras?
