Guild Wars 2

I don’t think the content in HoT is enough to justify a price tag nearly double that of a standard game key.
I hate people that use examples of other games and mmorpgs and what they did. Yes they sold expansions that cost more than the original key. What was the result though? They killed off a large portion of their existing customer base but brought in new juicy players ripe for the picking (of money). This is the case in Elder scrolls online, because its launch was on so many levels a disaster, their expansion including a large subscription attached for relatively free was a great move for them.
As a company. As in profits.
But do we really want to see the same kind of treatment from Anet? Do we want to be shafted in GW2? I mean really? For the flagship of lets not be money hogging, gear hogging, skill based rather than $$ based game out there this is a devastating move towards insulting your current player base. It simply doesn’t make logical sense that players with a full game cannot purchase a lone expansion.
GW2, if you really want to shaft us existing players then you can get stuffed. I’d rather take this $50 USD and buy a fishing rod. At least for that i can buy hooks without having to rebuy another rod.
