Comment Re:How about taking some of that subscription mone (Score 1) 450
my bad... When I talked about Everquest I was talking about Everquest 2. I don't even consider the original Everquest as being a good comparison to WoW. The original Everquest is out of date.
And yes, if you are a subscriber you do pay for the expansions; however, if you are a new account subscriber, you get all the previous expansions and the base game of Everquest 2 and this last one included all the adventure packs as well. It pretty much got everyone access to all the content that excisted.
So yes, we existing subscribers paid for the expansion and extras if we didn't have them already... but EQ2 has half-million subscribers.
As opposed to the 10million WoW has... so my point that you should have had more expansions and more newer content as part of the subscription still stands for WoW...they would still be making more money, inspite of it...
yet, EQ2 with it's smaller subscription base, includes monthly updates that add or update existing content. how's that?
Some subscribers bitch and moan on the EQ2 boards about not having enough and about paying extra for expansions but heck compared to other mmoorpgs we get alot, plus the hot graphics! LOL
