Early Access Drama in a Nutshell

Average Casual Player: Man, wish I could play War Within with my friends and enjoy the new content with them.

Blizzard Corpos: Should have coughed up the extra money then.

Forum WoW Knights: Should have coughed up the extra the extra money then.

Pretty much all arguments anymore about this topic.

Is it affordable? I’m sure for most it is. Should it be accepted. No.

My Opinion is right, yours is wrong, being an adult sometimes requires you to make them hard choices. Having the financial stability to afford to pay extra with your disposable income for EA on a game you love, or paying your bills.

Thems the breaks.

But did they really spend their money how they wanted to? Or were they coerced by the big B?

Blizzard came to my house and threatened me with violence if I didn’t buy EA.

I was thinking more coercion through FOMO, but sure.

What FOMO? Selling mats early is about the only advantage that I can think of.

At what point are we autonomous adults that are capable of making informed decisions about our money?

It does not belong in a mmo, so of course people will defend it.

That’s a you problem not the average player. The average player either bought it and is playing or they didn’t and have their plans set and it’s no big deal. Otherwise there would be a thousand posts per day about it.

You do understand how change works right? I don’t mean that in a rude way, im legitimately asking if you understand.

If there are people who don’t like early access, they should keep posting topics about it so Blizzard has some data to go by. I’m not saying in this case it will make a difference, but you can say that about any cause. Sometimes if there are enough people complaining change happens.

Should people just stop complaining about something that seems unethical just because its annoying other forum users? Or are you more irritated that they are doing in the general discussion forum?

That hasn’t mattered for 15 years. EA is no different than any of the other garbage they did like transfers, tokens, store mounts etc

There are already numerous threads about this topic that they can post their opinion on, which I’ve muted, as I know longer care about the topic. I’ll mute this one as well.
