So WoW appears to be getting a new mount… a motorcycle no less… called “The Hog”. You can see some pictures of it here.

Internet commentators, like Steve Danuser, are already up in arms about The Hog appearing in beta testing:

The helicopter flying mount made by engineers was pushing it for me. Once Azeroth has the motocycle, what’s next? When will I be able to get a Hummer to drive around in, or a Maserati?

To me, as a non-WoW person, The Hog actually makes WoW look more appealing. I’ve always had a soft spot for “steampunk” type things, and always enjoyed the gnomes as a race in EQ2. To me, this is the kind of crazy, madcap thing I’d expect if I was a WoW player. To all those who are getting uptight about it, might I suggest (in the nicest possible way), that you’ve probably out-grown the game and might be looking for a more “serious” realm to adventure in, instead?
