I thought this was a joke but it seems like it's actually legit. WoW, which has a subscription and paid expansions, just added a $90 item to their store. This is Korean MMO levels of absurdity. What do you think of this?

Seems like hundreds of people bought it immediately

It's pretty important for an MMO to respect its most active players

WoW chased them off years ago. They cater towards casual players now, and don't want the lifers.

What a load of nonsense. Wows endgame raids and dungeons are the best and most active of any MMO available and those are exclusively for the active players

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not...

I’m not. People keep saying FF14 but neither reports their numbers…

Edit: But the parsing sites such as warcraft logs and ff logs all clearly indicate WoW is more active.

FFXIV definitely has the edge in the gooner crowd though.
