Guild Wars 2

Since they dropped the price for the game, both Heroic and Digital Deluxe, maybe they should drop the price for the in-game digital upgrade since 2000 gems is kinda expensive as half the stuff listed for the upgrade you already get for free from the Heroic edition anyways. Just a though as it would encourage more players to buy the digital upgrade and therefore make more money for them…

They didn’t drop the price, it is on sale. The Digital Deluxe upgrade in the gem store includes all the heroic edition stuff…and it was just on sale for two weeks last month (1600 gems.)

ok your right, let me rephase that… since the game is on sale, maybe they should run the in-game sale again to encourage new players to buy it in-game.

Because they want to move the number of total units sold upwards most likely.

I would hazard the guess that they want to make some kind of PR announcement that they have sold X number of games and look good to the public and shareholders. Some arbitrary number they wish to reach.

Be on the lookout for the announcement.

They don’t have any negative PR to counter and it’s been argued that they have more players than they know what to do with. They could just want more money, but I don’t want to call them greedy. Huh.

Doesn’t have to be a counter PR campaign. It just looks good to say “Hey we broke X number of units sold”.

It’s something they haven’t done since close to launch and Holiday season is around the corner, it would be a decent blurb to put on their advertising to draw in new players.

And they do have negative PR. They are currently running damage control and propaganda for the LS pretty much whenever they can.
