Greedy fucks like Jagex can do this shit and nothing happens

People were upset for about 3 minutes, then what? Nothing.
Did they unsub? No.
They just took the updated price and just took it up the ass.

Fuck this shit.

giving up on the game forever outside of leagues was genuine the best decision ever in my life. Not because of the price but because of how reddit and tranny infested it is and how 99% of the "content" just boils down to retarded stupid high grinding that they refuse to smooth out because the jobless friendless addicts would have a go at them.
the endgame "content" is a fucking joke.
>>
>>735336593
By officially sanctioned RMT, and paid expansions. Blizzard makes way more money from selling microtransactions and DLC than subs. Subs just squeeze money from retards who keep a subscription active indefinitely and don't play the game
>>
>>735336663
I can tell by that "food" that you're a loveless fucking loser. Having a job alone doesnt make you any better than the average neet here.
You having to point out that you're a hcim makes me think that your job is propably some no-skill dump as well. But sure, keep coping.
>>
>>735337175
Okay, but consider the following:

People will pay more for subs anyway

It's also per character kek, wow has like infinity characters for the price.
>>
>>735337264
Are you suggesting that blizz could hike up sub costs too? Because they sure could, and the drones will keep paying. If I have to guess they're keeping it low to attract new players, having a sub is already a pretty big barrier and if it was 20 or 25 bucks it would definitely cut further

>proportionally exorbitant
If it can only be exorbitant proportionally then it's not actually exorbitant in any real way. The cost is so low on its face that using exorbitant to begin with is a misnomer. It's like picking out the most relatively beautiful tranny from a lineup. Sure one might be beautiful relative to the other trannies, but on its face it would be dishonest to use the word to begin with.

I really don't have anything to say about the price increase or the game itself, but much like other threads about shit like game prices going up to $70 and $80 I just have to wonder how poor most of you people really are? My job only pays a couple bucks above minimum wage, I work the standard 40 hours a week, I pay rent, I have all the typical bills plus some debt, and even after everything is said and done I really could easily fit something like this into my budget without even worrying about it. I just don't understand the people acting like this is an insane amount of money. Does it suck that it costs more than it used to? Yeah. Is it absolutely unaffordable? Not even a little bit this should be like 2 or 3 days of work for most people.
