I already own the base game of GW2. Since HoT includes the base game as a free bonus, I own the core game twice now. Obviously I want to be able to link the HoT-content to my main account, and also be able to set up a second account with the core game that I got for free with HoT. If a copy of the base game is included as a free bonus, it is included as a free bonus for EVERYONE, not just for people who are completely new to the game.
I need a second account anyways. But I am not willing to pay for the base game, then purchase an Add-on which includes the base game again (which I can not use tho, because I already PAID for having the base game two years ago), and then be forced to pay at least another 10 Euros AGAIN to be able to get the base game again for a second account, even tho it was included for free when I purchased the Add-on. Where does this make any sense? Seriously, Anet.
