You brought this up to try to belittle others in this thread. Or are you just being off topic now and should I do the same thing you did to me and tell you to stop posting off topic?

But you canât prove the % that are actually addicted.
So saying âthe community are a bunch of addictsâ and using early access as your reasoning, you are insinuating that anyone that got epic is a incapable of self control.
That is still an incorrect statement.
People who donât mind spending that much on epic are the target. Throwing early access onto the pile is just another +1 to encourage sales.
Has nothing to do with addiction.

It is not belittle at all, it is stating a truth about gaming and wow. The community and how it has acted for many years. To what it is now. It is very much a addicting game.
I just donât like things like EA that sells to that addiction.

You still donât know meaning of that word, since I keep helping you I will tell you that addiction is clearly about this topic because it is about early access and selling to these people.
That was a cute try.
I used it the same way you did, honey.
Pot meet kettle.

Yes because it is something easily proven, lets not look at the rich history of the community and what players have done. Lets pretend like a mother has not killed her child playing this game.
Lets pretend like people did not crash servers for a hunter nerf, or have done some outrages things over the years.
Better yet, driving a mod up the wall. Or how people acted at Blizzcon that caused trouble.
How many players acted over the years is not normal and it is signs of addiction that is common in gaming.
You donât have to believe or care, because it is something that you canât test for. You see signs and call it out.
Sweetie addiction plays a part of selling early access. That is what topic is about. The extra stuff you said what comes with the EA has nothing to do with EA itself.
You arenât and itâs not.
You are linking two things that have zero correlation.
Then by all means. Show me proof.
So the .0001% of occurrences define the entire community?
Or you donât like a thing and apply your own meaning to it to gaslight people.
Whether you believe or acknowledge it. Telling people that blizzard implemented early access to take advantage of video game addiction is in fact gaslighting.
Like I said. You insinuate anyone that bought epic is a toddler with no self control. Pretty broad net you are unfairly casting.

The topic isnât about addiction. And letâs take a look back at why you brought it up, shall we?
You literally replied to someone who was belittling others, just to add fuel to the fire to try to belittle along with them.
You donât get to backpedal and act all innocent here.

Uh huh, I mean just look at this topic at hand.
This is a classic sign of addiction when you have people saying they are more loyal because they pay more.
You have people who are so Insecure they have to bring up the extra stuff, and like you say I get it every year without the EA stuff. When that has nothing to do with people not liking the EA stuff.
I have been part of this community a long time, how people have acted over the years and treated each other over the many years are very much a sign of addiction. So much so south park made a eps about it.

I âbelittleâ people who feel the need to defend themselves by adding the extra content or try to justify the purchase when it had nothing to do with it. Also gaming addiction is very serious. It is not belittling. When you feel the need to come into a thread and say I always get the epic or whatever even without the EA. It just seems very insecure and in fact it is. You getting it every year has nothing to do with why we donât like EA.

More like we just want ALL the shinies and have the expendable income to âwhy notâ.
Next you are going to harass me because I bought the new kiriko skin in OW2 even though I have 4 store skins already.
Blowing my expendable income on pixels doesnât mean I am addicted. Have you ever considered some of us play wow as our hobbies. We donât go to bars. We donât travel. We play and buy our pixels.
Gaslighting 101.
Convince the victim THEY are the problem and you are the one with the halo just trying to save them from themselves.

Classic example of someone who needs help. Using gaslighting excuse to deflect the issue.
You felt the need to defend your purchase by telling us you get it every year without EA. That had nothing to do with topic. Your insecurity about your purchase to defend EA was not needed.
Iâm doing a good deed by pointing this out. You can do what you want with that info.
Right. Totally innocent. Not gaslighting at all. 
Thanks for once again proving my point: youâre incapable of a conversation without gaslighting everyone who disagrees with you and nearly every post you write when you disagree, claims people are insecure, all because youâre incapable of an actual conversation.

You bringing up addiction as the point for early access reminds me of that sceen in half baked bro.

Now you are gaslighting me about gaslighting and trying to convince me I need helpâŚ
So itâs insecure to point out we bought a thing before the extra thing was added to backup we werenât buying the thing for the thing?
Tbh Iâm going with you are trolling. There is no way you are serious.
I mean good job. We bit the bait really hard

You very much insecure about this issue.
OP posted about Early access why they donât like it.
People came in here saying they get it every year, and all this other stuff. I hit a nerve I know, but I think some of you need to seek help, because it is crazy that you feel the need to defend your purchase, and move the topic about the extra stuff. When people talking about EA.
You clearly do need help. As I said you felt insecure enough to defend your purchase about all the extra stuff, and how you always get it.
That had nothing to do with topic or why people donât like EA. Iâm glad I could point that out for you. I would suggest taking the time to think about why you did that. Also go learn about the rich history of wow community and how bad gaming addiction has been with them over the many years.
Yeah but if there was no early access he wouldnât buy it , that the point he is making
Last expansion you had ppl buy it for only for the extra goodies.
This expansion you had ppl buy it for the extra goodies and also those ppl who brought for early access not the extra goodies
So there is guaranteed rise in sales for this epic edition compared to last one.
This is exactly why this is going to happen next expansion as well. There is no stopping it. Blizzard doesnât care about the player economy , Dragon flight was a good example of that as they let bugs ruin the economy and didnât do any backtracking . Players who play Beta only do so to find exploits and fast routes, they donât care of the integrity of the game and who can blame them, Beta nowadays is considered a Demo and Blizzard just ignores feedback.
