Breakfast Topic: Yet another love letter to transmogrification

I love transmog for a variety of reasons. First up, I love transmog because it allows me to control what my character looks like. That’s a big deal for me — it allows a sense of investment that I otherwise wouldn’t have. But that’s not transmog’s only appeal.

I also like the gathering aspect, going to old raids and dungeons to get new looks. It’s similar to Pet Battles in that nobody has to do it, but you can do it and it’s play that doesn’t affect anyone else’s good time, which is something I really enjoy. I like that I have to actually go get a look if I want it. I’m also pleased that I won’t have to endlessly keep farming a look come Legion — quite frankly, six Ashkandi are enough for anyone.

There’s the mix and match, assemble your own looks aspect of it, the ability to keep using the look of an item you really liked rather than it just rotting in a bank somewhere, there’s a lot I love about transmog. It’s the best change the game has ever seen.

All of that said, how’s the transmog game for you?
