I thought this was a joke but it seems like it's actually legit. WoW, which has a subscription and paid expansions, just added a $90 item to their store. This is Korean MMO levels of absurdity. What do you think of this?

Seems like hundreds of people bought it immediately

It's pretty important for an MMO to respect its most active players

WoW chased them off years ago. They cater towards casual players now, and don't want the lifers.

What a load of nonsense. Wows endgame raids and dungeons are the best and most active of any MMO available and those are exclusively for the active players

What? FF14 is currently running laps around wow's sub numbers, wow hasn't been the most active MMO available since before bfa and the bootlicking cratered it.

I’d really love to know where you are getting your numbers from. I find it hard to believe that the game where the last expansion is tanking in the review score as compared to prior expansions is beating wow
