>Geez, Nintendo wants me to pay a subscription to play old games? pfft!
>Anyways, just got to pay my WoW subscription before I can play the game
>>
I got the year sub to wow but havent play in 2 months can i freeze the membership?
>>
I don't play WoW so take this with a grain of salt but, can't you earn the subscription by playing? The only rewards nintendo offers you is some towels or stickers or something. You're also paying nintendo to use your internet, not to play a game like WoW.

yes, you can farm the wow game time entirely with ingame gold.

You can in fact even use ingame gold to get Battle.Net currency and buy Diablo 4 with it, without paying a single real buck

WoW is pretty much dead
>>
>>736323919
It's why when you log in you're bombarded what people selling raid runs for millions of gold per spot. You can get your entire guild game time with just 5 people paying to get mounts.
>>
I don't even know why MMOs have sub fees anymore. They were the first GAAS and all have predatory cash-shops now anyway, so they may as well let people play for free especially if expansions are still $60 every 2 years.
>>
>>736324289
because number doesnt go up fast enough
>>
>>736324387
Yeah but making the game effectively F2P would get you tons of new blood while also pressuring them to buy expansions anyway.
>>
WoW still being $15 a month is like Arizona tea still being 99 cents a can. Cheap and still not worth it.
>>
>>736324585
>cheap
The actual costs of hosting a game like wow have decreased massively over the last 22 years. Not to mention sell a billion of other things nowadays including gold.
wow still having a sub price on top of paying for every new expansion just goes to show that the few remaining players they have are very loyal and extremely retarded
>>
>>736324585
I've gotten more enjoyment out of a single arizona mucho mango can than the last three expansions of wow

I think a monthly sub would still be worth it if there was more quality control. Actively banning bots, banning people who rmt and sells/pays for services that disrupt the integrity of the game. But that's not happening and will never happen, so it's not worth it.
>>

Nobody who actually wants to play an MMO wouldn't pay the sub fee for one. The price isn't a limiting factor, it's just that MMOs are inherently garbage and appeal only to people who would dump money into one (hence why a sub does not matter).
>>
>>736324983
> the few remaining players they have are very loyal and extremely retarded
Why would anyone actively playing WoW be paying for their sub with real money?
>>
MS shareholder meeting kinda revealed that Fallout 76 is getting more profits due to the seasonal system and store than WoW as of late
WoW also on its lowest player count
Blizzard going to release the other games on steam with "overhaul" upgrades because microsoft is going to put an end to battlenet once all is secured at steam store as Xbox PC store
the shills wont reveal this info, but things are very grim backstage, like WCW 2000-2001 levels of grim
>>
>>736326565
And before you ask, not even the interns knows of this, the fags will come here to spam the catalog with OW porn threads the morons pay as WoW shilling because all of their college debts depends on blizzard and this shit alone caused more problems than help.

Microsoft gives the call, not them or activision anymore.
those retards still believes that they are independent.

Subscriptions are the one true form of monetization FOR GAMES THAT REQUIRE CONTINUED COSTS TO MAINTAIN. A MMO requires servers, updates and all kinds of other shit - that's why it works. Also back in the glory days of subscriptions(including early WoW)
>No microtransactions
>All the in game content INCLUDING ALL FUCKING COSMETICS can be acquired by PLAYING THE GODDAMN GAME
>F2P being limited, or nonexistent kept out all manners of cancer or at least down to a minimum if you had to buy a key + sub.
>Every couple of years, pay a one off $40 ish expansion key, no change to existing sub, get a lot of new content beyond just standard patches and updates
It was truly glorious and its so sad how we've fallen to the worst of both worlds.
>>
>>736327035
that system itself was toxic as fuck and the reason that led to MMO downfall itself you semen gargler from irvine CA
>>
>>736323607
Blood elves being added to the game was more damaging to the world of warcraft franchise than nukes were to japan.
>>
>>736327183
>Toxic
What the fuck are you talking about? It was the merging of F2P bullshit greed, adding (non charity, and frequent) shit to pay for ATOP the subscriptions and other greed that came from the gatcha, item mall / KMMO "F2P", MOBA/BattleRoyale, mobile , and other faggotry and I'd see every single one of them burn to go back to be able to get all the in game cosmetics and other content available to me for $15/month or less without any fucking surcharges until I need to buy an expansion every few years and that's a single purchase.

I uninstalled and I’m not looking back. Had over 200 mounts, Insane and Undying titles, raided on and off since Classic start, getting told to fuck myself by the support for their own buggy game was the last straw. I hope they get their pride parades fucked with.
>>
>>736323552
No. And people saying you can are lying. The amount of hours needed to pay for a sub through in game grinding is greater than just working a minimum wage job for a week.
