You could always buy gold for WoW from third-party sites. This gold was made via either botting or hacking. So Blizzard created the WoW Token to allow people to safely buy gold, which was a positive for the game. Remember, gold was ALWAYS going to be bought/ sold by botters/ hackers, there was no way to permanently remove them from the game or to prevent players from doing it, so adding the WoW token was a net positive. And yes, Blizzard conveniently profits from it… Weird how companies like to do that, huh?
Anyways, so then you have people who say that "Buying it in-game with gold is the exact same as buying it with money" which just isn't true. Yes, in order for my gold purchase to give me Blizzard balance and get Blizzard store items for free, someone out there does have to buy a WoW token from Blizzard for cash… But that cash is being used by the player for gold. The only person giving money directly to Blizzard in that scenario is the WoW Token buyer. I am not giving Blizzard my money, I am using gold farmed in game. 2 people receive things they want in game (gold or mounts), but only 1 person is directly paying Blizzard, not 2 people. And the person paying Blizzard is just buying gold, which is a process that combats botting and hacking in the game.
what if starcraft 2 was made into a mmo like destiny ?
About GW2 "Paid Transmog", you can get every single one of the shop items for in game gold. I don't see a problem when it's done that way.
Asmongold is so envious of BellularGaming wow skillz. Always making videos of the great player.
It's funny because the transmog is purposely ugly af and I STILL see people wearing them lmao.
No, they did not ‘kill Starcraft 2’, they just officially announced no more new paid content
Well adding cosmetics loses functionality?
18:00 I mean it is business model then too? Pay to win is bad because pay to win is bad
19:12 today as well
Is Asmongold a fake char? Like Kacey tron is?? I mean he gets more hypocritical and self delusional everytime he makes a new video. he is not self aware of himself. Does he say this stupid shit to get people to react to his video and comment?
19:38 It is not ‘killing the game’, the message is more damaging than the actual outcome.
We have record numbers of players, above the million concurrent since 2017, which was bigger than 2015.
It is still popular, new development not worth it, ppl knew there was little new content anyway.
And that is not how athletic kids are. StarCraft II is and was doing well since 2017, it is profitable in skins.
StarCraft II was not unprofitable, it is just investing new money into additional content is not as profitable as other investments – it’s stupid when asmon imagines things
Brood War is not ‘dead’ for example, the community and esports are still going strong and how long has it been on maintenance?
Smash Melee and Everquest classic aren’t ‘dead’
The RTS people left from blizzard. They left because of anticipating this. The profitability expected from a new rts isn’t higher than other investments.
Starcraft is and was very popular and content popular and profitable across all types.
It has much higher numbers than in 2015, it has higher numbers now than even when it went f2p in 2017 which was higher than that and had kept steady and constant since
It was not a ‘snipe’, it was everyone working together to leave who wanted to make an RTS. WoW is profitable so it will continue to be developped
Cara leforge was tied to them but not worked there.
Imagine having a box price, subscription fee, AND cosmetic microtransactions..

Jesus, holy fuck. Someone should tell him the difference between the mtx of GW2, FF14 and WoW because he never played those games yet he's bashing them so loud it's actually funny. The first 2 has amazing content with regular updates and great cosmetic items which can be obtained via gameplay. And their shops are mostly CHEAP. But I guess it doesn't fucking matter in an argument because w O w i S t H e p O p U l A r m M o
PoE: Its ok to have cosmetics because its free. Gw2: Which is F2P with dirt cheap expansions = Cosmetics are not ok. Hypocrite much?
$330 for base game/xpac's. $168 per year for sub. times 15 yrs $2,520. not including the highest tier version. so in the past 15yrs youve given them $2,850. fuck me thats where all my money goes…. shit im dumb. btw 16yrs "this year" and shadowlands puts it over $3,000.
Blizzard starts to even copy the BAD things from FF14 xD
I guess I'm not that mad because that outfit looks mega stupid.
bought a month sub and played for a entire hour, then went to classic did a onyxia, and fuck that was it, my sub went, never touched it after till sub was over, thats how all these systems suck balls ! and Im an old wow timer, theres a original corrupted ash in my bag, any one want to buy it, ill sell my account gladly…
When WoW has real competition from the people who made the OG game – they're going to have to hire better talent for more money and they'll have to wake up. This is a good development.
FF sucks. Guild wars sucks. Even tho BFA sucked i'd still much rather play that than either of the other two lol.
the rant at 7:55 Big TRUE
I bought the first 6 month deal because it was cheaper than paying for my account monthly as I had been doing. It came with a mount I never use. But I still don't pay again til February and I got the trans mog for free just like the mount. And I only paid for the 6 month deal once. Normally I agree but this was actually cheaper… This time..
They made it ugly on purpose so players wouldn't totally revolt like the would if it was awesome. It's to get us slowly used it. It's basic marketing. And it will happen more and more as we get used to it. Watch.
Paid transmog, mounts etc is only somewhat acceptable in a free to play game imo. In a game that you have to buy the box copy of and then subscribe to retain access it is just a kick in the junk. They weaselled this stuff in originally under the guise of charity drives for non combat pets, exclusive items for things you just happened to pay for like pre-orders, event tickets etc and now here we are.
This is a mistake, a big mistake. It's one of the things i hate with a passion in Elder Scrolls Online. It starts small and next thing you know they will be selling in game item skins you would normally get from just playing (like they do now in ESO). I admit WoW has never been the game for me , simply because i could not pay for it as a kid so i never got into it, but i always thought that the collection of mounts and item skins is really well done and can keep you busy for months if not years. As long as they make exclusive outfits that are not in the game AND the game is free to play i can accept it , but i see toxic practices creep in MMOs more and more no matter the business model. I understand they need to make money but they also need to think what would hinder the experience. I think Blizzard is seeing how other big MMOs are handling their stores and are starting to realize with how much they can get away with. One thing though, out of all the MMOs i have played Guild Wars 2 (haven't played it in a long time) seemed to handle their store the best way , ESO the worst and WoW should not have one at all in my opinion. The progression of the ESO store , went from "Ya here are some skins, maybe a mount or something useless and dumb looking" to "Ready , to instantly buy Skill Trees, entire collections of in game set skins, consumables and a ton of other stuff?". It's toxic and it goes against everything an MMO should be.
WOW IS DOING WELL BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE THIS CRAP… OR DIDN'T HAVE THIS CRAP
Asmongold needs to buy Activision out. That's really the only way. We need to start a GoFund me. Bell can be VP. Come on this is it.
It's easy go back to faction basics Horde VS Alliance (Or combine them and make an Azeroth faction) VS Undead VS Legion VS Void… not that hard
Artificial Progression…. you mean like how Heirlooms tell people NOT to play their character so the rested xp can build up
Holy fuck Asmon cannot stop reeing about the transmog. I used to sub 6 months at a time because you actually save money that way. And you get cool free shit every 6 months. You don't HAVE to buy any of this shit. And it isn't like Asmon is going to unsub anytime soon. So why does he really give a shit? FFS.
I have extreme trouble thinking Warcraft 4 would be successful at all, might sell well due to the brand – but they couldn't even remake fucking 3 properly. What chance would a whole new game have?
@asmongold With regard to "paid" transmog sets; why do you care. I also think is dumb, but only because it's ugly. But it's a way for making money. It helps keep the game going. I get what you say, about paying for the game and subscriptions, but as you said, you don't buy it yourself so why do you care. Just curious.
Stopped watching right at 1:07. Fuck that guy
ey, gimme 20 bucks, bobby gotta buy a new helicopter xD
funny part is, in ff14 you get most good looking transmogs ingame, also some as "veteran bonus" aka as a reward for total bought game time. the sets in the ff14 shop is mostly just "you want that very special look/dress like a specific character? well you can buy it"
warcraft law is a joke. it never was overly complicated, but it was good. the "good" aspect however is fading away
The transmog sperging is annoying honestly. If you don't like it don't buy it. It does not affect the game.
World of Warcraft created their store in October 2013. You are arguing this point SEVEN YEARS TOO LATE. You are disingenuous saying that the game is number one because it didn't have this – when it actually did . Nice rosy glasses, Ass.
look up Genshin Impact been out less than a month
yep fuck blizzard and fuck these horrible business practices. but fuck shitting on peoples choices of how they spend their money, calling them stupid for buying it. im rich as fuck, i bought 50 fucking sprite darters transmog because im the man B)
ACCOUNT WIDE PLAESE this is not another repeat of "you think you do, but you dont." we know what we want
Depressing thought. Think of all the money all of us will have wasted over the years when WoW decides to close up shop. All of our pixels and digital property will be gone just like that.
Hope that they buy blizzard, not destroy it.
"Berk"
Warcraft lore is way too fucking complicated to make Warcraft 4, unless you just cut out 90% of the lore added in WoW expansions that was not native to the warcraft universe from before WoW.
WoW lore is like a fucking soap opera that has literally no creativity, desperately introduces a character and makes them a shallow villain so they have a villain. I long for quality lore in WoW again, not some shitty half-assed 3rd grade story.
2 make money tf do you want from companies lol
