An overpriced fictitious mount in cyberspace is hardly a disturbance in the overall equilibrium of the world.
The mount, at heart, is a luxury item. It's not necessary for your survival, and is only there for your satisfaction - if you can afford it. Like all things in this world, some things are more and some things are less. Valuable items naturally sell for more, and more common items conversely sell for less. No surprise there.
Just as you wouldn't sell your car for $10 to a poor person, PWI deems it necessary to sell this mount for 70 gold.
In the end, this mount is irrelevant to gameplay, and is there for purely aesthetic purposes.
In correlation to your Zimbabwe example, an overpriced mount will hardly have any effects. PWI will be the least of their worries if their income is really that low.
Instead of saying the world is unjust because people in Zimbabwe cannot afford Ferrari's, perhaps you should say the world is unjust because they lack basic sanitation and education systems. Something more realistic, something more logical.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
obama tripled our national debt from 453 billion to 1.2 trillion in less than a year in office. it took george bush 8 years to **** us up that badly, and these idiots still wanna shoot at imaginary terrorists that dont even exist.
(not to mention this war is unconstitutional and illegal)[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

maybe thats why you don't see the average zimbabwe ppl with mounts. and since this is your example... they (zim ppl) make a bit less then a dollar per day. THEN WTF ARE YOU DOING WITH A COMPUTER. YOUR COMPUTER COST HUNDREDS (EVEN THOUSANDS)!!! YOU KNOW HOW LONG THOSE PEOPLE HAVE TO WORK TO BUY ONE!!!. YEARS!!! EVEN DECADES!!! YOU F-ING GREEDY PIG!!!1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

Everyone knows its for the oil, Iraq and Afghanistan have oil or major oil passing through their countries, cheaper petrol for you guys i wouldn't complain, also it keeps your troops battle trained and hardened for when there is another major war heaven forbid.Executor Of Reunited ~ Level 3 ~ Level 85+ ~ No Drama, No Pressure Faction.

If you feel that strongly about it:

Trained? My Friend died and combat, and My Cousin was Seriously wounded, This isn't training, This is torture. They are Killing our soldiers for OIL? I'd rather have no oil and my friends and family then Oil and Dead friends and family[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

I never said it was all good alot of people do unfortunately die or seriously wounded but your Government is more interested in the oil unfortunately.
EDIT: BTW im not trying to say oil is worth more than the lives of good people because it isnt, im just pointing out things.Executor Of Reunited ~ Level 3 ~ Level 85+ ~ No Drama, No Pressure Faction.

F2P MMORPGS is the best business model ever invented. People buy products that dont have manufacturing expenses, you buy stuff that can ONLY be used in a game, you spend your real life money on a world that's not even real and then people whine for a $70 mount...
All I can say is LOL. A 70 gold mount ain't stopping me from playing and having fun.0 -

Based on a mount in an online game..?[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
+1 to above b:chuckle
As for OP, their product, their right to label any God given price they want.
And your economical view gave me a nice laugh 4 the New Year!
~And yes, it's overpriced if u ask anyone, but who cares F2P ftw!b:dirty0 -
Someone lock this **** of a thread. It makes me want to rage at people. Mainly the OP
Got fish?0 -
If you don't like the mount...Don't buy it...Problem solved. Do you lose anything from them doing this? No...But it is a new offer for people and some will buy it. PWI doesn't care about people who complain about their selling of items...They do this for the people who appreciate the items and consider buying them. Complaining about it will never have any effect...If it somehow unbalanced the game, that'd be one thing...But it doesn't x.x
Lucky I don't make MMO games...I'd wicked overprice items occasionally just to mess with people X30 -
there was a fight in wc about this a few mins ago b:chuckle0

In the US minimum wage is around $7.50 per hour I believe. Is less than 10 hours of work really that much? I completely agree with you that nobody should waste this much money but I just want to point out it doesn't really cost THAT much.0 -
Well this thread is going nowhere fast.0
