This just teaches me to wait and I will get game for free
They did the same thing with BFA a couple months before shadowlands came out
I got a free boost/shadowlands on a different account, but it wasnt linked through bnet (the one i used to get a rocket). However it didnt come with a sub
Gw2 is still going strong, its a far superior game than retail shadowlands is atm, so don't knock it. It prob has more real players atm too.
I don't think you mentioned it, but my understanding is that if you have an ArenaNet account and already own GW2, you will NOT be able to get GW2 on Steam for free. I imagine the amount of players on the steam client are a small percentage of overall players at this point. I surely am not going to buy GW2 twice…
Also, Blizzard better give us free boosts… I'm coming back for DF after being absent since Legion (and barely played post-Wrath). It may be narrow-minded but I don't want to touch any content except for classic and DF. I re-subbed a few months back to play TBCC so I think I'm eligible but I haven't been able to find the gift or redeem it.
I love how a lot of this boils down to "Blizzard are trying to introduce new players to Shadowlands, but why would you WANT them to have to go through Shadowlands?"
Honestly getting into season 4 for a PvPer is easy as long as you create a new character and honor cap while leveling.
– Blizzard is arrogant, they only think about money
– Blizzard is desperate because they are giving the game for free
pick one
13:18 I was thinking the same lol
Retail takes like 8 hours to lvl from 1-60 lol who the fuck needs a boost in retails classic takes half a life time
Leveling from 1 – 50 is fun. Leveling from 50 – 60 is bad. Grinding Anima, Renown, and legendary currencies is torture. So, getting a free boost to Systemfail is actually a great way for Blizz to have people leave WoW forever.
I just bought shadowlands 3 weeks ago.. I should have waited to start lol
When Shadowlands is so bad that they literally can't even give that crap away…
i got the email (havent played since early Legion) and was like…ok? ill accept it but still not come back lol
Here is Blizzard's problem. Anyone who returns, after a long time, to play Shadowlands…. will actually only come to the realization that the game has become incredibly generic and boring. It would be better if they made Dragonlands … cough DragonFLIGHT less boring that Shadowlands… and then try to get people to come back. Shadowlands is soooo boring and generic. It's not even fun at all, its just a daily/weekly quest grinder. If people come back to play Shadowlands, there is a strong chance that they'll quit playing again, before Dragonflight launches.
Not desperate. What a shit thing to use for a title. they made a bad expansion and are attempting to give people a skip? but now thats desperate? man….
Lets go youtube more negativity we can do it.
What i have to lvl for 10 hours to get to 60…… bliz want to sell boosts.
What bliz gives free boosts and expansion bliz sucks.
What i can get for ilvl 226 to i lvl 280 in a week with 2 lengedaries and 4 piece tier the game is to easy bliz sucks.
What ppl dont invt me to m+ cause i have a low io bliz sucks
What i have to make my own group so i can learn the game and raise my io sowly BLIZ SUCK
What i have to find a guild, in a mmo, be social and raid with ppl insted of buying a boost BLIZ SUCK
What i have actually have to play the game that i pay 13 euros per month Blizzzzz suck.
Now go play with your digital cat girls.
I've been back in shadowlands for 3 months. And the new content is so fueking stupid, that i just refuse to interact with it.
I just stopped xp gain at 45 for my alts and do anything that isn't shadowlands.
Came back to check the new patch out a few months ago. The convoluted systems made me quit my 60 after 2 weeks of running around like a headless chicken trying to figure out where to go (Just like ya'll described loool). Decided to just start a fresh character, lvl cap at 29, & quest in Chromie time (At least i could somewhat figure that confusing maze). That monstrosity of systems upon systems @ 60 right now is shameful (Props to ya'll that stuck through it all but holy fuck that must have been rough). Def NO plans to buy new expac this year. Boggling that scaly elfs is their answer to this dumpster fire…../sigh
I grabbed it but without a free month at least I had no interest in trying WoW out again.
funny thing is, you can update to shadowlands anytime you like paid or not, but the Lv 50 boost requires an active sub to use. sneaky sneaky blizzard.
Y does the guy not named Bellular talk so much. Maybe i am in the wrong place.
it's crazy how long you guys have talked about how shit all the systems have been (which they have been) and now all matt talks about in every video is how people are going to miss it and not know what to do…
Here is a better idea Blizzard. You want new players to try to get hooked and go through your awful new player experience? Make it all free till current expansion.
It's not that big of a deal
You still have to pay for the sub, and Shadowlands is going to be free with the sub in a few months anyway
They're just advertizing the game, hoping to capture returning players that will pay for the sub again just because they got potential access to the expansion
This will WORK to bring in players. My coworker said this was really all it took for them to come back. They heard about wrath classic, dragonflight, and getting shadowlands for free, then asked me if I was enjoying the game. I said yes and they downloaded the game again that night. This is an exciting time for wow! There’s seriously not a better time to get into the game than RIGHT NOW!
I get so angry when developers treat people who don't want to play their game better than the people that do. Hey, look, it's me, a player who actually bought shadowlands and played that crap – where is my free boost? Ooooh I have to quit the game and not play it for years before you'll give me gifts to show your appreciation? got it, will do.
Steam only allows new accounts =
Oh how the mighty have fallen… dumbass blizzard.
Too many people need to be told what to do. Obviously they have never played Goonies on Nintendo.
I just started shadowlands 4 weeks ago. They make it very hard to tell what is still relevant content and what isnt. Gearing up was nice though, plenty of options with the fated raid and pvp gear being so easy to upgrade and obtain.
Dragonlands Renown is basically just like paragon boxes that you can work towards
I don't really see why you would want to rush a new player to the final endgame content. You'd want to skip if you've done it before, getting them to skip everything is just rushing them forward to join us in the land of waiting for Dragonflight.
I actually considered reactivating with this promotion, then I saw "body type 1, body type 2" on the character creator on a recent Asmongold video and remembered why WoW was no longer the game for me, at all.
Blizzard needs to give me some free game time to at least test the current game in order to know if I feel it worth my time and money.
Also, give me BfA so that I could care even an ounce.
Thanks to this vid I got free Shadowlands & Boost so thanks.
in MOP the basic game was BC capped, blizzard then added WOTLK free, months later added CATA free, then near end of MOP cut the expac twice to like $15 then $5 or 10, then made it free months before WOD. Vivendi Corp was still the parent company of Activision-Blizzard at the time.
I'm confused why I would want a boost at all. I wouldn't get the heritage armor…
You want me back for Season 4? You want me to renew my sub?
Give me slime cat in LFR.
Seeing bellular try to lie to himself one more time when we know the game is still shit because they quintupled down on bad design and making it accesible… Is the most sad desoearate and pathetic thing i seen in a while.
Let me remind you. Game isnt fixed and isnt on track to be fixed.
FUCK BLIZZARD!
Gw2 respects time spent. Wow fanboys think game respecting your time means a game that takes no time… No! It means a game that doesnt devalue the time youve spent and demands time
