I'm not to keen on "cosmetic rewards" for completing the season journey. It needs to be something meaningful for reaching Guardian since it requires a pretty decent time investment. The season journey reward needs to be something that compels people to play seasons and be worth the effort. I don't think tacking wings on to the guardian achievement is quite enough. Currently many players don't push past destroyer since the only reward for Guardian is a portrait frame. People need to "want" to finish the journey off for some reason. Some epic thing that makes you want to play and push to that point. Wings just aren't it in my opinion.
Why can't we get some cool looking wings (not the butterfly wings) for completing each seasonal journey 6+?
That way we have a chance earn them & not have to buy a Blizzard game like WOW or SC2 that I for one will never play.
I think your idea could work!
About the cross-game rewards, I hate them. I was looking at the wings from Overwatch, they look amazing, but I have ZERO intentions on playing that game. As a matter o fact I think it's shit.
I'm a big fan of Diablo franchise, been playing since diablo 1, still play D2, got vanilla and ROS collector's editions and ... I'll never be able to put my hands on those wings because I won't pay for a game I believe it's shit just because of the wings.
Same goes for Starcraft, which also has interesting cross-game rewards, but I don't like the game so I won't buy it. As a Diablo fan I feel punished by this for some reason...

Playing season should be completely optional. If you HAVE to play season although you don't want to play season, then it's a bad game design (looking at Stash Tab...)
That's why Season journey should not give big rewards. It's more like an advanced achievement system. No reward and a minor "hey, you did it" meta reward is enough for it. Those who like it, can do it. Those who don't like it, are not forced to do it. Only players who are really invested into the game, will force themselves to do something they don't like. Most players will just look at it, laugh and start another game, where they can have their fun.
That being said, I'm sure those wings will eventually come into this game. They are not against those wings. They are against the way to get them on the last PTR build. I'm sure they're thinking a lot about the right way to implement them, at the moment. I just think Seasons is not the right way
That is part of it as well, There should be a reason to play season for those who want to, but not something that makes those with no interest in seasons feel forced to play it. Placing cosmetics even though they are optional might make players feel forced. Many people felt "forced" to play in this season due to the stash tab and there was a huge outcry against that. There needs to be something on both sides, a nice reward for those that want to play season and complete the season journey but is available to non seasonal players as well, maybe something that is easier to obtain during the season but is available to non seasonal players once the season ends. That was the purpose of unique seasonal legendaries, with those out there isn't much left.

Are you obsess with wings? me too!
good idea, but i think they're not doing that, unless they're givin' wings and other things of reward
Like the ptr is now, i think everyone will farm all the wings of the patch 2.4.1
