Yeah, you're right. We don't HAVE TO TAKE PART in the offer... or the pet battle system... or the game itself.
You do realize how ignorant that line of suggestions is, right? When you push people from an MMO, what do you think will happen?
You're also very, very naive when it comes to pretty much everything you said about the 12 month subscription. Yeah, Blizzard is ALL ABOUT saving us money!
lol, same deal every time blizz launches a new expansion. So much unnecessary QQ. Just wait until it comes out and play it for yourself to judge. Who knows, it could be the best addition to the game yet!
Finally hunters will leave me with my precious.
I've walked the realms of the dead. I have seen the infinite dark. Nothing you say. Or do. Could possibly frighten me.We are not monsters! We are not the mindless wretches of a ghoul army! NO! We are a force even more terrifying! We are the chill in a coward's spine! We are the instruments of an unyielding ire! WE ARE THE FORSAKEN!Those who do not stand with the Forsaken stand against them. And those who stand against the Forsaken will not stand long.
Don't let the door hit ya folks... They have finally gotten creative. They are broadening their appeal, and to all the SWotR groupies out there... This is just the thing they needed to do to ensure enough of the WoW fanbase does not turn to that game. Long Live WoW.
I was hoping that Pandarens would be the new race back before they announced the first expansion that eventually became the Burning Crusade. I can't freaking wait. This is the right thing to do, Blizzard. Thank you Samwise, my favorite Blizzard artist, for creating the Pandarens! Thank you Blizzard for finally putting them in the game!
I love it: new class that can perform all roles using new mechanic, PANDAS!!!, new zones look fantastic. Finally a reason for me to come back to game.
What do people who are not going to run Heroic raids need raid gear for?
See it can be done to you as well.
People want cool neat items. Quit being an elitist towards them.
The game use to be 5% raid 95% don't.
Now it is 5% seriously raid and 95% just play easy raids.
They are expanding the game set to others to enjoy content. Notice they said it would be diminished compared to raiding.
WTB moar readying comprehncion.
Pokemon, DOTA, and World of Warcraft? All in one game? This will be nothing short of amazing.
thanks for the nice screencaps I downloaded a few of them on my Ipad to share with people. Fun!!!!!

Really glad I quit.
Poor Kadaffi... if only he lived a few days longer he got to see all the WoW news
Just not sold on the idea, the whole premise of the expansion seems really stupid...
This will be amusing when we are still seeing 99% of the "I'm quitting" crowd still posting here in 18 months time.I'm going to rserve my judgement but so far it seems pretty good to me. Not sure I like the pet battle system but no-one is going to force me to use every aspect of the game.
I can boil down all the reactions happening right now into this:
All the current WoW players that were in elementary/middle school when Pokemon was out are literally pissing themselves with excitement. Everybody else that isn't a Yiff or obsessed with Asian pop culture is looking for the unsubscribe button.
you're right, you don't have to partake in the game itself. and i say good fucking riddance. you think i give a fuck if 12 million people play the game i play, or if 6 million people play it? wow could lose half it's subscribers, contentrate its servers, and still feel as vibrant as ever.
if you ask me, there are too many people playing this game. too many people that just want the world, they want it immediately, and they want it personally catered to their exact playing style. i play more than just WoW, because i know that WoW offers me a certain outlet for certain gaming impulses which i have. i'm not stupid enough to believe that one game can provide for me everything i need to satisfy my desire to play video games.
and this system of giving d3 away for free, WILL save those of us, who would be getting a 12 month subscription anyway, $60. that is a fucking fact and you can NOT deny that. in this case, blizzard will benefit by getting the cash up front, immediately. THAT is their benefit when it comes to people like me.
and obviously, they will make money off of retards who pay for a 12 mo. subscription just to get d3 for free when they otherwise wouldn't do so. get that through your head moron.
go play swtor or any number of other mmo, you'll realize they aren't as good as wow, just as i did. i've played aion, darkfall, warhammer, rappelz, guild wars, warhammer, all extensively, and you know what? they were fun games, and i enjoyed my time there, but i also always came back to wow.
is wow the perfect game? no. and i don't ask it to be. hence i can enjoy it, by taking it for the pve enjoyment it provides me, then if i want pvp style gameplay, i go play dota, or starcraft 2. if i want a single player experience i play mass effect, fire emblem, or any number of other good games.
