Guild Wars 2

Knowing the really nice leniency and convenience of buying anything with in game gold, will there a high possibility the Expansion will be purchasable through the gem store?

I’d have to say it’s less likely to be released through the gem store

I believe Anet commented on this before and said that it would not be available on the gem store, I’ll see if I can find the post.

Let’s be clear:

Q: Is the expansion “buy to play”?
A: Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns is a paid expansion to Guild Wars 2, but once you buy it, there are no subscription fees. This means that you can continue playing and access future updates for Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns with no subscription fee.

“Paid” in this context means money, not gems.

That’s what I was looking for, thanks!

That’ll just encourage people to trade gem-equivalent gold or bl gifts for xpac keys and for people to scam. It’ll be fun to see the situation unfold.

It won’t be in the gem store, and if it ever was, it would be limited to one purchase, or just.not be giftable, the the upgrade option. Also the post you quoted as it would not be in the gem store.

Gaile spoke. Speculation complete. If you are about to complain that it costs money, consider how much you spent on your PC to play the game..

Gems would become super expensive, and you would have to grind for insane amounts of time to get anything from the store.
