But only if you paid Blizzard their FOMO extortion.
That what it comes down to.
It’s not a bonus for the super expensive edition of the expansion - it’s a punishment for the rest of us who didn’t give in to it.
I’ll never look at Blizzard the same after this.
I’ve been playing this game since the last month of the beta in 2004 and still…nope. They do not care about their long-term players.
Go enjoy the expansion.
These posts are becoming tiresome.
I couldnt play with my friends tonight because they have the basic edition
And still not a fan enough to buy Epic edition?
I always bought Epic way before “early access” and I joined in WOTLK. I bought collectors edition physical Cataclysm, and Epic digital ever since.
Mounts/pets/toys/30 day game time with Epic making it 800% value
I find it funny people claim to love this game so much they’re mad over waiting 3 days, but not spending a few extra bucks on a game they claim to love
I am Canadian, Ontario too. I paid the $130, no regrets
Since when is GD expansion worth TWO AAA games?
Nope. Not value. Convenience.
Doubt you’ll be using these toys next expac.
Unless they’re toys that annoy other players.
Then you’ll go ham because that’s where your so-called “value” probably lies.
Then you’re…special.
You can’t do heroic dungeons, you cant do Delves past Tier 3. Weeklies are locked, etc.
Pretty much all you can really do is start some profession leveling and gathering and level characters to 80.
Now I do think they should take a page out of FFXIV’s book and make Early Access available from pre-ordering any version of the expansion.
But it’s not that much of a head start and we are beta testing bugs for the most part.
Nope, just a WoW addict. WoW is the 1 thing I love, and live for.
The defence of egregious greed is tiresome
ok… so suppressing and punishing free speech in china wasn’t bad enough?
Pledging to match consumer contributions for esports rewards and paying literally nothing wasn’t bad enough?
The multiple make-a-wish pets where 78-91% of people’s donations went to profit instead of helping anyone? Those weren’t enough?
Firing Kaelthas’ voice actor because a woman stalked him wasn’t enough?
The crappy xpacs weren’t enough?
“Don’t you people have phones?” wasn’t enough?
No, 4 days to level an alt with no real advantage over everyone else. That was the black spot.
Get your priorities straight. You’re gross.
A business does things to make money. Not everybody will agree with said decisions but it’s the way the cookie crumbles.
When you grow up and make money for yourself you too can spend it on things you like just like I did.
Literally none of the threads addressing this issue are mad about waiting three days. They’re mad because it’s going to set a bad precedent for Blizzard to do this sort of thing down the line and offer less because of it because people will snatch it up anyway and ebb away at that so-called integrity companies are so proud of touting until they’re actually called out to practice it.
lol what a load of horse____.
The entitlement people have is tiresome. Most stuff is locked until Tuesday’s reset anyway. You’re not missing much by waiting 3 days.
I wonder how many people complaining - complain because other people have a better car then them or something. In life if you want something, you buy it, or you don’t. It’s your choice. But don’t complain over what other people spend their money on.
That’s what’s known as a slippery slope fallacy bucko
Which is exactly how Blizzard and other companies get away with the paid for early access scam. I’m fine with companies running early access if it’s only a free addition to the basic addition pre-order. But this is just bare faced greed
