    This is the purpose of all entrepreneurial endeavors, including video games.

    If there were not a financial incentive, and a perceived desire in the community, it would not happen.

    It is the new version of the Annual Pass. If you sell WOD now, and give away a free 90 for a pre-purchase of the game, you not only give players something new to do, play with a 90, but you lock them into playing WOD.
    @Ghostcrawler:Some advice: [My pet issue] is why there were sub losses is one of the weaker arguments players use. Players don't have that data.

    You don't get anything the people at launch won't get so no it is not like the annual pass.

    ouch ! I don't really care about PVP. But Blizzard clearly showed how much they care about this minigame thing called arena here...
    Not even doing some art for new season, talk about laziness.

    I don't think preorders for Mists or Cataclysm happened until after their release dates were announced. which was well after their beta started and even after the major patch hit the ptr. We're not even close to that.

    2nd time I see this 'WoD release june 24th' stuff, what's the source that started this rumour?
