As a courtesy to new players, all versions of the new Heart of Thorns expansion to the wildly popular Guild Wars 2 saga include a Free copy of the GW2 core game.

So there is what you could have said. I think people who rewrite hopeless goop posted on the net generally say Fixed. You would also be exploiting the Number One sales word in the English language – FREE. I think that is probably taught in copywriting 001.

You might also note in some of the rage threads that giving away the core game to attract new players with the expansion is actually a huge bonus to existing players, as we really do need some new blood (and dollars to pay for more devs to like Fix the Game too? Which is about to have a massive and doubtless bug ridden major revamp, that we loyal fans will survive – again.)

I certainly see the flip side of this, and personally I would honestly prefer an expansion at an expansion price with an attached perma-discount to get the necessary core game for the now usual sale price of 10 bucks, or even 5. Thus new players might pay 50 and existing players would pay 40 or 45. Any acknowledgement of existing players right not to pay for the same content twice, at this point, would be a pretty good save.

But cutting it off in the first place by stating that new blood gets the original game FREE was the screamingly obvious spin.

Get some talent for a department that just keeps stepping in it. Please.

They’ve already said no to that. Real money only.
