World of Warcraft Paid Forums?

Cant post unless you have a current Sub? $15 per person even today? 8 people in my family = $120 a month… I pay google $24 a month for 8 people to have unlimited Music… I pay Disney $20 for 8 People to have unlimited streaming… I pay Netflix $18 for 8 people to have unlimited streaming… WoW is dying and still trying to get $15 per person… It make no sense. Family streaming and packages are so old now, Family gaming packs are so old now…

Meanwhile.

I pirate my anime shows, movies, and TV serious. My family uses a bootleg firestick so we get free netflix and others streaming services. All my games are F2P or have been bought at a discount years ago.

No subscriptions.

No consoles.

All on a CPU tower custom built for 1400 dollars. I got the keyboard, mouse, monitor, chair, and desk for free. Some dude was moving offisland so he needed to get rid of some stuff and somehow make cash fast. So I got a huuuge deal!

So my PC runs stuff like Elden Ring at Ultra settings and works smoooth!

That’s me. No BP no buying new games. Just steam, my personal sites, and my PC which is still under a year old, to last me several years plus maintenance fees.

It is a monthly sub game. I don’t see the issue with their officials forums being for their current players.

Why do you need to post on the forums if you dont play?

People have said this since probably Cata btw. What’s crazy is that the WoW sub gains value over time because you get more and more previous expansions on top of classic

not sure what do you expect from a game that is still charging money for 2 decades while all other MMOs moved to f2p.

well they did get 15 when you first started

they do
Its 15 dollars
you know, like WoW, it is as if when you have a (relatively) high player count, you need good servers

Lol. I was gonna say, FFXIV and WoW are the most relevant (arguably the only relevant) MMORPGS… So if those have subs, it’s not exactly the most archaic practice hahahaha

actually no…i had a token from 6 years ago :stuck_out_tongue: (many points throughout when i thought about using it)

though I will say that there are alot of free mmos just
most arent good
or they limit what free users can really do

I won’t be surprised if happened only because it had the resources to take on WoW and WoW was already doing it.

There is a good reason for why there aren’t many games with monthly fees nowadays.
