This week, Denethar dives into Blizzard’s new Hearthsteel premium currency and what it means for the future of microtransactions in World of Warcraft. We look back at the history of WoW’s in-game purchases, break down the real cost behind store mounts, and talk honestly about how these systems shape the player experience. Plus, fresh impressions from the Midnight Beta, along with updates from The War Within and Legion Remix.
