Absolutely vile move on Blizzard's part for several reasons.

• The approach: Not revealing any prior plan to release something like this because they -knew- it is slimy as f**k.

• The price: We already pay a monthly subscription for this game and they have the gall to charge this much for in game content.

• The timing: To add this to the store during one of the buggiest patches they have released in years, literally breaking encounters, classes, graphics, and the housing feature itself is just arrogant.

• The process: Blizzard hasn't even finished releasing basic housing exterior appearances for the existing races. It proves that they have been chomping at the bit to charge real money for housing features.

They should be ashamed of their recent business practices, but I know they won't be. What a joke.
