Why is the Cruise Chaser mount from the Mogstation?

[Evergrey]

They literally could’ve put it as a make it rain available mount. What are you on?

I think it was because the person he quoted on said "cruise chaser that got removed from the game".
Like that it had been in the game but not anymore as they put it in the MG instead.

So, It was never an in-game mount to begin with as it was never a mount in-game until it was put into the mog station.
So it couldn't have been removed to begin with.

He quoted me and I never said anything about cruise chase being the game before and it being removed.

You know there was a time in gaming before everyone white knighted game companies for removing product from the game that you would get regular updates and new items in the game for no extra cost. Some you didn't even pay a sub for. Now you pay a sub, you pay 60 for every new expansion and you pay hundreds of dollars for content taken out of the game. Then you have people white knighting se like se has no control over what goes in the game and what goes to the mog station. Its a complete joke. You have people that are for putting things on mog station but not that item they want to be from the game cause it has special meaning. You can't have your pie and eat it too. Then those special people that are like SE is a business they are suppose to make money. Yeah that is what your sub is for. They would keep the lights on this game even if it didn't have a mog station. The mogstation is investors and board members greed. Plain and simple. Either it exists or it doesn't but you wanted it so swipe those credit cards for the exclusive $30 cruise chaser that got removed from the game that could have been rewarded from so much other content. But hey we got a free bear in the seasonal event, you are happy right? This is what we deserve as a community.

Well.. To me it looks like you implied that it got removed from the game.

Be careful of your words. Bold-face added for emphasis.

I see they removed the denial post.

I think you missed the point but either way your statement is ignorant. What I was saying is, either the mogstation exsist or it doesn't you can't be for the mogstation then when they put a mount on the mogstation you think it belongs in the game be against it. A mount being on the mount station doesnt prove that is would have never exsisted. It only proves that their was interest in the mount enough for them to do it. Which if we had no mogstation would be used in other marketing schemes to get players to join etc. That is more logical than it not exsisting at all.

I think you missed the point here. Alexander had their mounts, for 9-12 it had the Arrhidaeus mount. So yes, if it weren't for the mogstation we wouldn't had cruise chaser since the alexander raid series had their mounts like any other raid series from HW on.

It's really not that hard to understand tbh.

Yes you are correct. My fault. It should have said that got chosen to be mogstation product instead of implemented in to game. Instead of being removed. Semantics the point of it being created and not put in the game.

Understandable.
Happened to me aswell that I word things wrong sometimes.

Yes, there are multiple choices on how SE can implement a mount.
Through Achivements, MGP, Achivement Points, Events (and probably more).

Semantics aside, if something shows up as a mount on the Mogstation (that isn't tied to a holiday from past years), it is not the Game Development Team that requested the item, it's the Mogstation Team. It would not have been created at all without that request. The most appropriate place for that mount would have been in the Alexander raids, back when Heavensward was the only expansion.

Six years later, it's available only because the Mogstation wanted a new mount.

White-knighting microtransactions is such a bizarre thing to do lmao, I always end up getting a laugh out of these threads. I bet Blizzard sure wishes they had a community like this right now.

Probably because, we actually don't have that many. Mogstation mounts are less than 10% of what is available in game.

The "number" of items on the Mogstation itself is kind of misleading too, 90% of that is former event items... Which, if you were here when they released, were included in your sub.

I mean I am not going to argue this man. If this is what you believe than that is fine. I mean I am pretty much done arguing about mogstation. It doesn't need to exsist, it shouldn't have exsist. The dev team, the mogstaion team, the CEO, TENCENT whoever. It doesn't matter. SE as a company has agreed to this and they are still responsible for it. So they chose for product to be created with the intent only to be sold and they take items that the dev team created and put them on the mogstation too. They give okay on products that are added to their game/store and it is still their IP. They could indeed have added it to w/e they please and a blanket statement such as it would not have been created in just casting the net to far wide for me. Either way I digress. I have accepted the mogstation a long time ago. I am just on the boat we deserve what we get now.
