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

Not even a new trend in WoW either.

Can't even blame Blizzard, it's the people who keep buying this shit that are actually the problem.

If these wouldn't sell in the store they could've been items to obtain through in-game activities (which don't require eternal grind).

Por que no dos?

I have room in my heart to hate both groups.
