Why the hell is BFA MORE EXPENSIVE than pre-ordering SHADOWLANDS? I was just about to get 3 of my friends into WoW since BFA was only $20 but they updated the price back up to $50 right before they all bought the game. Normally that wouldn’t be a big deal, to be fair it was on sale for $20 but I figured that was a permanent change until Shadowlands came out since to preorder Shadowlands it costs $40 and comes with all of BFA’s content. So if you can preorder Shadowlands for $40 or buy BFA for $50 why the hell would you ever buy BFA? $20 seemed pretty reasonable for the latest expansion especially considering a new one is just around the corner.
I have spent YEARS trying to convince my friends to give WoW a try. Getting them to spend $35 just to play the game for a month was hard enough but now I don’t think they’ll be playing the game at all since no one is about to spend $65 on a game they are already skeptical about enjoying. I don’t know who decided charging $50 for BFA was a good idea when Shadowlands gives the same amount of content BUT MORE for only $40. Blizzard PLEASE reverse this change and just keep BFA permanently at $20 until Shadowlands comes out. I don’t know why you would up the price back to $50, it simply makes no sense at all.
