Base preorder has no character boost?

Fun fact: The base Shadowlands edition costs the same as the base MoP edition. Which was back before they started bundling boosts.

Fun fact: mop also included content like a new race and class, not just making a current class just available on other races.

Fun fact: you don’t have to buy the expansion.

Same price as other AAA mmos. Shadowbringers was $40

85

How many playable races did bfa add?

86

That’s my point that added additional content with the purchase, even if some were just race reskins and included a boost. Now they’re just decreasing quality and charging more if you want everything previously added

87

Cool. What’s your complaint again… I don’t see it.

They’re cutting content and increasing pricing.

Increasing what pricing… I bought Legion for 60+ CDN and just got the game. I bought BFA with gold for … similar amount. But got a boost.

Shadowlands gives you a similar offer but a cheaper offer without the boost. What are you trolling here about.

SL is also adding new customization options for many existing races. It’s not a 1:1 comparison like you’re trying to make.

I mean, if we’re going with your logic, the base game launched at $49.99 and included two gigantic continents, 8 races, and 9 classes. I guess every expansion after that was a “cash grab” since they didn’t contain nearly as much content.

Kurtloder just wants to be upset about something and nothing is going to stop him from turning this molehill into a mountain.

It is unfortunate but some people just want stuff handed to them for free lolz. These character boosts etc. are optional items that are naturally used to up sell a product. Basically like when we buy a car. You want leather seats? Chrome mags? Just add x amount for the bundled promo haha

I didn’t realize that you worked for Blizzard and had a full feature list of what will be included with Shadowlands. Perhaps you should take your problem with pricing directly to Ion.

96

That is literally what I am asking for. Sell me the expansion bundled with the boost that they’ve done for like three previous expansions. I don’t want this other fluff for additional costs.

97

Why do you even want the boost? They’re speeding up leveling by a massive amount, something like 60% faster than now.

98

I am, why do you think I’m here posting to let blizzard know my displeasure. I don’t lie down and take the poor service blizzard offers.

They keep cutting everything customer wise. Can’t call them anymore, firing all their cms, reducing quality of expansions and testing prior to expansions etc.

Edit: not to mention them siding with China and being perfectly fine with the human rights abuses going on in HK. It’s a shame.

99

It seems more like you’re just angry at Blizzard in general. Even if they reworked the cost of the expansion, it wouldn’t solve any of the other problems you listed. Your best bet would be to just stop giving them money.

There is the base 40 dollar without the other fluffs
