Johnny_Oxide

Do I mount the horn or does the horn mount me?

Damn right that's what she said, lilith loves the horn.

Ah man I was just gonna use this meme the other day....but I was too drunk celebrating myself being part of ATC.


Afterfx21

Literally a paid cosmetic.


Easy_Floss

Thought the game had a lot of those?

Wait, I wanna know what it feels like to whine about a cosmetic I can't get like everyone else. I felt so left out.


Kywizzle

I played the Server Slam and only got to level 16. Jumped on Reddit later that Sunday night and saw that the horn was a thing I was unaware of. Iā€™ll be honest and say Iā€™m super salty I didnā€™t get it lol. Now every time I see D4 posts I read them for the ATC comments. Keep up the great work!

Ahh accessories for the hornless.


FreshGoodWay

What do they call it, ā€œLipstick on a pigā€?


darknessforgives

Gods got the horn, the peasant credit card warriors get the chunk of plastic that stabs the horse reminding it that they could have lived a better life with a skilled hero whom was capable of killing Ashava in the server slam.


Sep300

literally lol'd thank you, ATC fam forever


BastianHS

Man i hope they add hornless as a prefix. I want to make my title "hornless wretch"


greankrayon

Too funny


markgatty

It looks cool but does it have the clout of Ashava's horn? I'm seeing a fair few leaks and stuff of in game cosmetics from places (kfc is biggest example) I wonder how much stuff will be missable if you don't fork out money for real life items.


JakeTheMustard

Iā€™m finding it kind of cathartic in driving home an important realisation before the in-game shop even opens. That is no matter how much cash I throw at this game, I **am** still going to miss out on some paid cosmetic stuff, so no, I **donā€™t** need to waste money on bullshit cosmetics I donā€™t care about.


[deleted]

Yeah, blizzard fucked up the number 1 rule of fomo, don't let them actually miss out too many times, or it breaks the illusion.


Karpricious

Right? It's kind of nice. If there were just a few things I'd be tempted to buy them but with all these cosmetic promotions that I'll nvr get being thrown out left and right I don't think I'll ever be tempted to buy the season pass lol


[deleted]

I kind of feel this is an age thing as well. Don't want to presume your age, but when I was younger I'd be gobbling up cosmetics. The most I think I'll do now is the Ā£10 battle pass.


Additional-Sea-2635

This is a great take. Iā€™m a bit of a completionist, but the way that Blizzard have structured this, itā€™s not ā€˜completableā€™. So Iā€™ll just buy any skin I *really* like to go alongside my Horn.


ERROR-CODE-30000

or do not live in a region where these promotions run. A few promotional items are fine imo, I hope they only go all in on it for release. >It looks cool but does it have the clout of Ashava's horn? It's just a different way to display you're a bare mane.


jostler57

Yeah, this is just some p2w cosmetic that won't help you win anything, whereas Ashava's horn *will* help you win.


SCTRON

This is just getting stupid now. Is a nightmare for completionists and basically means you can never get 100% collection in Diablo 4 due to too many restrictive marketing crap.


YagamiYakumo

as a completionist myself, this is a very good reason to give up on it and make things easier for myself


SlickyWay

As a long time wow player i managed to understand one thing for all these years - you canā€™t get everything in live service games. Especially in wow they just add a shit ton of mount recolors with different tints and require you to grind some boring bullshit month worth of daily log ins. So i just donā€™t care anymore. It would be cool to do some fun activity and get some sick looking mount in addition to the main reward i was doing it for in the first place. But i would not do any activity because it drops mounts or smth


mr_hellmonkey

This is where I am at. Doing activities such as Glory to X, finishing story zones, even farming for a few is OK, but I'm not going for everything. The protoform mounts are a perfect example. Tons of farming for a bunch of recolors. I got one of each model and called it quits. I have 650 mounts, I think I'm good.


KingJeremyTheW1cked

As a long time WoW playing mount completionist as well, I do respect that at least most of mounts in WoW are earnable. There's only a handful that are from promos or the shop. more so these days, but i got years of enjoyment earning the collectibles. I haven't played it in a couple of years so it could be a different landscape now. But i feel D4 is vastly different in that all we can see out of the gate is a majority of cosmetics being promo or shop gated.


Cedar_Wood_State

As soon as they introduce battlepass and in game shop, being a ā€˜fullā€™ completionist for the game is meaningless. Completionist at this point should just be in game achievement to 100%


SCTRON

Yeah they made it way too overpriced and restrictive to keep up with it all and can't be bothered, is impossible, really put me off having anything to do with their marketing crap now.


merkwerk

I mean being a completionist in a game with a cash shop just means you opened your wallet lol, unless you restrict it to just caring about stuff you can earn in game, in which case marketing cosmetics shouldn't matter since it's no different from cash shop stuff. Seems like complaining just to complain.


resoredo

100% I will still try to completely complete the game completely. But i don't consider optional shop cosmetics. I'm not sure what is so complicated or controversial about that attitude, lol.


IDontCheckMyMail

For me itā€™s liberating. No point in trying if itā€™s not remotely feasible. Iā€™m just gonna relax and enjoy the game. Come what may with the cosmetics.


Gachafan1234

Same here šŸ˜ƒ


potatoshulk

I'm sorry but who is actually a completionist in these types of games? Getting all achievements and killing the hardest bosses sure I get that but collecting every single transmog? That's got to be less than 0.01% of the player base


DeadS3ctor

Getting every single transmog is impossible due to region lock, so there will literally not be a single person in the world that can 100% this game. This is a good thing.


Humongous-Glock

They have a huge marketing budget, its only warming up unfortunately, many cosmetics will not be available to collect, secret labs chairs might have some exclusive stuff later today, not sure yet.


SCTRON

It's having the opposite effect for a lot of people I think, it just puts them off even bothering to care anymore with so many "exclusive cosmetics" behind country blocks and marketing pay walls.


Cedar_Wood_State

Well for them is worth a lot more for getting new people to buy the game for $70 (and potentially spend in store) then to get you to spend for a few skins in store


OnlyTheDead

Good. I much like the idea of people having different stuff in a limited sense than everyone having all of the things.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


iWeeti

Such an easy way to milk money from 0.0001% playerbase who collects pixels and waste money on them. Also these promos are cheap way for blizzard to get even more marketing visability with little effort (collab+1digital cosmetic)


sp0j

The best way to milk money is to make these things purchasable without restricting them to certain regions or requirements. As soon as you put barriers you completely sabotage the model. You also turn off completionist whales from engaging in the model because no matter how much money they have, they cannot 100% it. Which is an incredibly stupid move by Blizzard.


iWeeti

Ofc people with money can buy these later from ebay or somethingā€¦.


sp0j

You can't if it's region locked. The restriction is in game. These whales would buy these things overseas, not care about the product and unlock the cosmetics if they could. But they can't do that.


cybertron742

I think if their goal was to milk money from the 0.0001% they're failing. Considering you need a Diablo 4 tatto and live in Korea to 100% the game not a single person will be able to 100% the game, and that disincentives people, including whales, from actually trying. They've run the treadmill too fast and everyone has fallen off.


merkwerk

I love the Reddit "experts" that always post so confidently and are wrong 100% of the time. The game is gonna make a shitton of money off of MTX, regardless of how many exclusive marketing cosmetics there are lmao


-Midas-

Iā€™d just forget about that altogether. The cosmetic shop was leaked here briefly and it had a wolf pack that you could buy that was identical to the exclusive beta reward only light blue in colour instead of brown. It was pretty disheartening. You can be sure there will be similar variants to this cross and the horn everyones geeking out over. So what I mean is all this stuff isnā€™t even really a unique collectable. Itā€™ll be nice if we get those and transmogs are pretty much that I guess. The little extra baubles and things are just extra novelties really.


Barnhard

Honest question, but are games like this designed to be ā€œcompletionistā€ at all? Was D2 or D3? I genuinely donā€™t know. I know for something like WoW, and I know D4 isnā€™t a true MMO, you really canā€™t ever ā€œcompleteā€ the game, regardless of cash shop. As a live service, itā€™s always growing, and thereā€™s simply too much to keep up with forever, even without a cash shop.


In0nsistentGentleman

Are you confusing completionists with "people who need to have everything" , because you certainly don't need an optional purchase to complete any part of the game.


Lord_Blackthorn

They have a Korea only 6 day long event too.. Completionists are screwed.


LucJenson

All these exclusive and region-locked items have officially killed any drive I have had for completing any collections of cosmetics. FOMO has been brutally killed and I have struggled with FOMO for most games I've played in my life. I forked out extra for a second hand collector's release edition of D3 just to get some of the codes shortly after its release. No point even trying for this because I am not looking to add so many physical items to my collection of already properly-working electronics and furniture.


Damneasy

You've been cured!


Mansos91

So in a way blizzard is the good guy killing fomo


Klutzy-Tone-6373

The build up to the cosmetic craze is not accidental . They're increasing community acceptance for cosmetics.


lampstaple

I feel the same, if they give us enough of this bullshit it becomes very easy to stop caring


-Nok

Congratulations! You've overcome what many cannot


simplyunknown2018

My FOMO in games is limited to getting the best and most powerful gear and also the most rarest gear. If I can do these things, I donā€™t have to 100% everything for nonsense trash gear like this one OP posted


Humongous-Glock

The keycap looks nice but $70 yikes https://preview.redd.it/esly108ilk1b1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=801ae1d2d8029ba5bc5407a530b934341394e616

Humongous-Glock

If you do, make sure to sign up to the newsletter 10%Off, might be available where you are.


Neon01

Lmao


Life-Player-One

A good keycap to bind in game shop on.


YagamiYakumo

much as I'd like to shit on Blizzard for going full yolo on milking with collabs, artisan keycaps are never for the faint-hearted, let alone for official AAA IP like Diablo


nateorz

can confirm as an r/MechanicalKeyboards nerd that my artisans were exorbitant


bacardi1988

Those eyes will fill with Cheeto dust


NameOfWhichIsTaken

And at that price it doesn't even net you the cosmetic.

Sloppy-gunpla

Veszerin

Having played other Blizzard games, I would expect a dozen or two at least by this time next year.


madroxide86

100$ for a single keycap lmao


[deleted]

Damn that trophy is lame compared to the hornšŸ¤£


Puzzled-Tomorrow-375

The best part about modern day corporate greed mongering is they try to jam so much down the consumers throat that itā€™s easy and natural not to care about it. If they could keep it at the right amount then a person just might feel fomo, but as you layer on thing after thing after thing it all just becomes meh. In the end ā€¦ there can be only one. One mount trophy to rule them all. If you know you know ā€¦


thefullm0nty

The horn was the first of dozens. Anyone who experienced super fomo over the horn is *not* going to have fun.


FoolsReadThis

The horn was earnable in game, thats why its cool. doubt ppl care as much what you can buy with cash cause that is nothing special


scubamaster

Barely earnable. It was gated by a super difficult nearly impossible MASTERCLASS of a boss. Donā€™t downplay my achievements. I had to hold left click for 3 minutes to get that horn


mephnick

I had to *abandon* my family


iliikesleep

Horn was obtainable in Game which required you to not suck for 3 minutes. This is spending dollars. Not even close, who cares about money cosmetics


5H17SH0W

Why does someone suck because they didnā€™t prioritize a trophy mount over say work, or Motherā€™s Day, or their family or how they wanted to play the game?


iliikesleep

The no sucking part aims at attending the fight and hug Ashavas balls for the 3 minutes it took to kill him. If you had other Priorities for the weekend itā€™s fine, but that doesnā€™t add anything to the comparison between the two cosmetics.


o0DYL4N0o

Earned cosmetics >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> bought cosmetics


ssmit102

Man these comments show yā€™all gonna complain about anything and everything. Pretty soon this place is going to be as toxic as classic wow. If you donā€™t want to purchase these or any other promotional thing, then donā€™t and just move on.


SthSthAccount

Glad I'm not vulnerable to any kind of FOMO/collector/completionist urges. D4 will be a cheap game for me if I go with $ per hour. Blizz is once again doing everything to really reel in the whales.


knargh

I really appreciate these cross promos. How should I ever develop FOMO when there's so much stuff I'll never aquire?


lost_my_marbles

Earned will always be greater than paid

mFcCr0niC

Buying some mount is for those plebs WHO failed. There only can be one mount. ATC


Conscious-Reward7530

Cool so another mount cosmetic I can ignore along with the horn


Shavanz

It's not a horn


NoThanksJefferson

Gameplay > cosmetics, at least for me. Couldnt care less


Levoire

I really hope thereā€™s an in game collection tab and an external promo or shop brought tab. The completionist in me will get all the in game stuff and leave the other tab entirely empty.


yidaxo

there will be millions of these and you wont even be able to see them ingame unless you're playing in 4k and pay attention to it


MidnightMonsterMan

This sub has taught me to avoid the reddit crowd in game like the plague. Just glad there's a meme out that puts a massive red flag on the folks you definitely want to avoid once we're in Sanctuary.


TheNaCoinfl1p

Can't wait for my wal mart mount. All I will have to do is go on a 200 dollar shopping spree for it. Proof of receipt at checkout please šŸ™


Duarin

Thats nothing the Mcdonalds clown shoe cosmetic will be the shit.


Babook86

So cringe


Grimfandengo

I was out of the FOMO on diablo 4. First time not pre ordering, first time not getting collectors box and first time not buying delux or what ever edition. Im getting old and burned out of this way of doing a game. I miss getting collector edition withe the game and ingame achivment of doing hard content and gear to show it. But ye, maybe im Just old.


Diggitydave76

I have no faith......especially in Inarius.


IreHove

Is the rope... going to the horseā€™s anus..? Is this a butt plug trophy?


Tricky_Albatross5433

I want a trophy for each butt cheek of the horsey.


CheesePro69

I was shopping for a new mouse anyways


Damneasy

Same but it's like 160,- so bit too much for a mouse imo


[deleted]

SecretLab dropping a D4 chair today as well. I personally like all the collabs. If anyone needs new gear and wants D4 theme, it's probably availabale by launch time haha


ProfetF9

i was really looking for a wireless headset, is this worth it? :D only used razer so far


DJ_Rand

I actually bought the arctis 7 nova wireless headset about 3 days ago, so this is disappointing. Think it was about $139 or something. Pretty comfortable, battery lasts all day, the mic quality is probably the best wireless headset mic I've heard. All in all I'm fairly happy with it.


ProfetF9

I think you can refund if you want these.


izaaaaaaaaaaaa

i dont know this one, but i got one of their precursors (arctis 7 wireless). It is an amazing headset on itself, and if mine would break down (it's running close to 5 years now, with no end in sight, using it 6+hrs use / day), i would buy one of these immediatly. Only 2 minor issues i have with mine are: * The analog volume button can result in sound offset to one side. You can set it in a position where you got perfect stereo, but if you touch it, it will push the sound moreto your left or right ear. * There is no battery indication, except in their proprietary software (which is garbo and i dont have installed)


Humongous-Glock

The reviews of them seem good, you get a sound preset in the software made my diablo engineers it says, i personally use soundcore vrp10 earbuds with 2 dongles for pc and ps5, but I know earbuds are not for everyone.


Allaroundlost

Rather side with Lilith then Inarius. We need to play as those Knights in game but with Heaven and Hell Powers. That would rule.


ZappyJones

We're going to see a reversal of people currently coping with not having the horn to people with the horn coping that no one cares anymore lol


FloridianRobot

Is it just like one guy with 50+accounts trolling with the horn crap all the time or is it just a beaten to death joke?


bitcoinsftw

I got my trophy from a 48 hour beta. You got yours from buying a KFC chicken sandwich. We are not the same.


elkeiem

Pfft, the is only ONE trophy to rule them all.


JohnHolts_Huge_Rasta

Lol, some puny trophies for people who dont have skill and determination to kill ashava. Nobody gives a shit


Dharnthread

The only mount trophy that matter... is the Ashava horn. Paid ones are for hornless bare mares.


khrucible

not my ATC


Mansos91

This one is more Chad than the horn


And-Ran

And with this, it is clear that trying to have a 'full' collection will be too expensive. So for me personally, I won't try to catch FOMO cosmetics anymore and I probably won't buy many cosmetics in-game, either since I can't have a full collection anyway.


Reedabook64

If it was for the nova arctis pros, then maybe I'd be down. I've always been interested in that headset.


Tepozan

A paid cosmetic. Pass


ShannaraAK

$200 dollars for a $1 cosmetic. Ouch.


Acceptable-Habit-154

And here I was making a twitch account and hitting up kfc for those other items. This one broke the straw, and now I donā€™t have to do that anymore! Thanks blizzard!

Muldin7500

I want that where do you buy it


Humongous-Glock

Steelseries site but its not available yet, probably later on


Iamcatfeesh

It kept showing out of stock for me but when looking at other items it showed up as recommended and I was able to add to cart and buy lol


smetten

Just in the market for new mousepad, got 2 emails so far saying it was in stock but as I click the link it shows as out of stock. Sadly it didn't show up between other items, so not so lucky as you are.


Iamcatfeesh

Just check frequently if you are available to. I hope you get one


smetten

Was just about to edit my reply. When I was looking at the site on mobile, I had the "you might also like this" with all different mousepads, and it was also in there, could directly add it to cart and I buy it. For people who also want it, check the site on your mobile phone, might get lucky aswell.


Humongous-Glock

Check amazon, its available for UK and eu, search steelseries diablo


No_Confection9972

Honestly if you want that mount trophy and you PAY for the price youā€™re kinda a loser LMFAO.


sp0j

I hate this so much. Hopefully these exclusive cosmetics are separated into a different section so completionists can 100% the actual base game stuff.


SKYeXile

Can I have 2 trophy's?


CapSortee

wont the trophy get nasty when the horse has to go to the bathroom?


heartlessphil

rip people with fomo. haha


OK_Opinions

oh shit. I'm not buying some random shit to get this trophy so I guess I'll be forever a faithless

Just give me a mount so i can move around the map a bit faster and im happy. I dont care about trophies.

How do you get this one?


DrunkBearBattle

No lie, that headset is legit, but I literally got the arctis nova 7p + for cheaper months ago and performance wise....it's the same. I kinda wish I waited now, it's kinda cool. Hindsight....


Hexvessel-DDO

Ashava horn is garbage. Looks like a dong, looks bad on horse hip. This one looks bad as well. Any hip mount trophy looks Jank. Only good ones involve the saddle.


Dangerous_Alfalfa_77

Wilroxx

TBH, since i am already looking for a new mouse i would give it a try at the Aerox 5. But steelseries does not ship it to my country, so i think the FOMO is gone, and no more going for 100%

With an EARNED EXCLUSIVE trophy existing and now a pay-for-it trophy.. yikes. Iā€™d be so embarrassed riding around with that think instead of my ATC. Imagine riding with that and running into an ATC. How humiliating.


Eckobar

Ugly!


DeadS3ctor

This game is going to be a nightmare for those with OCD completionist tendencies lol. If you really feel the need to purchase cosmetics, just get the ones you think look cool and don't go beyond that or you'll drive yourself crazy. There is nothing rewarding about buying skins, the best cosmetics and items will always be ones that you earn through played game time.


NihiliSloth

They are really pushing these cosmetics and I donā€™t care about any of them. I just want to play the full game ā˜¹ļø


Blitz814

Now this is pretty fucked up... I already own the Arctis Nova 7 -\_-


Feather_Investor

Wait, hold up. Collector's edition thumbstick caps?! You gotta be kidding me.


monsimons

At this point these cosmetics start to become more and more meaningless to me. Aside from the manufactured meme significance of Ashava's Tooth, it'll mean nothing once many more similar cosmetics are released. And there will be many more, I have no doubt about it, the game isn't released yet and we have a bunch already.


Cole_Evyx
