Not only that, but in GW2 they ended up doing shady stuff like locking additional equipment slots behind latest xpacs and making latest xpacs builds the best so, unless you’re super-uber casual and never play group content, you’re de-facto forced to buy everything they release.

Now, an MMO is very expensive to maintain so it’s fine to pay for it, but the article is the most hypocritical statement I’ve ever seen.

unfortunately I have known people who are not good at impulse control

I was still playing WoW when Blizzard sold a 90$ mount on the shop, NINETY $, on top of the sub and paid xpacs.

I loved Gothic 1 and 2 and played them countless hours.

No you don’t, and you don’t give two flips about AI slops because those are where you get your money from.
