It's just silly but people will buy them! Emotes come included in mmo all the time. Look at never winter which is free and includes dozens of emotes. I hate that it's come to this especially a game advertised as such. At least with never winter you knew up front you would have to purchase some items if you wanted certain things. When it's introduced after the game has been out for a year , it's just bad business. Charging $5.00 for one is like telling people to bend over and take a -blam!-ing from a softball bat.
