I, Mike Bassler, believe that the upcoming game, World of Warcraft is much too overpriced. Blizzard is asking for excessive amounts of money, amounts that I'm sure the general gaming community does not want or is not able to pay.
Let's take my case for example. My brother and I were both beta testers in the final open beta. We were quite disappointed when Blizzard announced that the accounts would be wiped after there were rumors that they would carry over into retail; rumors which Blizzard chose not to silence. So, let's assume that my brother and I gather up the money to buy World of Warcraft on release day; how much money would that require?


-Cost of one year's gameplay on World of Warcraft-

$49.99 - My copy of the game
77.95 - My first 6 month subscription
77.95 - My second 6 month subscription
49.99 - My brother's copy of the game
77.95 - My brother's first 6 month subscription
+ 77.95 - My brother's second 6 month subscription
--------------------------------------------------
$411.74


Some people may readily provide that amount of money, and Blizzard may find demanding such an amount of money acceptable. I, for one, do not, and I'm sure that there are many other people out there who agree. There are many alternatives. Rahter than having both people in the same house buy separate copies of the game, why not have one buy a copy of the game and the other buy just a game key? Instead of having both people in a household pay for separate subscriptions, why not just allow both to be connected under the same subscription? Such options would not only ease the strain on the wallets of the gaming community, but also boost the number of people buying the game.
