IN Game Store WTF?

Comment by chaosseed

It's an item with no Account / Pickup bindings with "Require level 85" restriction,
and has a 25 silvers vendored price tag on it.
Not to mention we have Elixir of Ancient Knowledge already in the game.

People who still think it's a Cash Item must be either blinded or just plain stupid.

This (most likely) persists through death.

Zarhym provided some clarification on this item (Source):

We are currently exploring the possibility of adding a way for players in certain regions to make purchases directly within the game. As part of this process, elements related to this will be appearing on the PTR. We’ll provide additional updates on our plans as development progresses.

My guess would be Korean regions, since you have to pay by the hour and they've already implemented Korean-only changes like special loot ilvls for 25-player raids.

Edit: Bashiok clarified more things on July 8th

Thanks for all the feedback so far, everyone. We’re still pretty early in the exploration process, but we did want to go into more detail about our rationale for introducing an in-game store, as well as provide some insight into what you might ultimately see available there.

For players who are already interested in the in-game items we offer, such as Pet Store pets and mounts, the benefits of an in-game store are pretty clear. We think everyone would appreciate the convenience of being able to make such purchases without having to leave the game, and ultimately that’s our long-term goal for the system, though there’s quite a bit of work involved in retrofitting those existing items into the new system.

First, we’ll be testing the in-game store with some new kinds of items we’re looking into introducing (in Asian regions, at the outset) based on player feedback: specifically, an experience buff to assist with the leveling process, as well as an alternate way to acquire Lesser Charms of Good Fortune. We’ve had a lot of requests from players in different regions for convenience-oriented items such as these, and as with other new ideas we’ve introduced as WoW has evolved—including Pet Store pets, mounts, and more—your feedback plays a hugely important part in determining what we add to the game.

Ultimately it’s still too early in the process to make any final determinations about our plans, but in the meantime, we hope you’ll check out the in-game store once it’s implemented on the PTR and let us know what you think.

I'd still rather have flying in pandaria at level 85...

Dear Blizzard blues. This item needs to lose it's requires level 85, needs to not be BOA or BOP and needs to be the next replacement to the Guardian Cub. That is unless you're going to go with legit gametime for ingame currency transactions. I mean so many people advertise WTB and WTS it in trade anyway.

I am seeing a lot of people that do not like this but I personally think that this will actually be a pretty nice item if it goes live for a few reasons:
-For the majority of people the "end game" content is when the game really begins.
-For people with multiple alts, it can become quite boring to do the same quests over and over or keep running the same 5 or so dungeons.
-Many players do not enjoy the leveling process (or would rather be doing end game content) and this lets you go through it faster without just buying instant level 90.
-If you enjoy the leveling process, you are not being forced to buy this, you can keep leveling at the normal rate.
NOTE: I do, however, feel like it should require a character at max level to use it so you have to go through at normal speed and experience content the first time, as well as keeping people from buying a ton to get realm/ world first achievements.
