Blizzard actually said that's what they were considering, back in October: Right now, adding 20-25% more content for 66% of the game's original price doesn't feel like a bargain at all, especially when compared to Blizzard's own offerings like Mists of Pandaria and Heart of the Swam, or the many substantive DLC missions loads of games offer for $10-$15 on average.Įven a $30 price point would have felt more justified than $40, however minimal the difference may seem. But the video game landscape has changed since a dozen years ago, and if you're going to be charging nearly full price for an expansion, it better feel worthwhile.
