Q:

Okay your standard expansion for Heart of Thorns is £34.99
I offer you £20.99
There is a sense of entitlement here but only as a customer who you are trying to sell this product to and who has a right in his own economy to barter. As I work in Customer Services in a large communications company I know there is no such thing as loyalty to a customer, so this is from a business point of view.

Here are the reasons why.

  • We are not getting a spare slot but I don’t want one at the price you quote as those can be bought converting gold to gems.
  • I already have the game and don’t want a second account.
  • The size of the expansion from what I read here is a small fraction of that of Guild Wars 2 originally which wasn’t much more in price so the ratio of price to content is so much poorer in that context.
  • There are many other ftp and btp mmorpg games out there than there ever have been to choose from and many more to come. I would rather pay the HoT expansion price on a btp game with a large full world and much more new themes, playstyles, classes and storylines to explore as well.
  • I burned out a quite bit in GW2 and have not really enjoyed the last seasons creations as much as most of LS1. Therefore, I have not played in a long time instead playing another mmorpg with three characters on the go and enjoying it very much.
  • I do miss my old Guild Wars guild and I am interested to see where HoT is going with things as it would be nice to do this stuff with others but at the price you quote Im not that interested.
  • I’m pretty sure eventually I will get a cheaper version of the expansion anyway at my leisure

Do we have a deal?

I use forums to give my opinions but I mostly avoid discussing over
them due to those less than polite individuals out there and their offensive attitude.
