LOTV will be standalone?
I believe that on release WoL cost €60, with Hots at €40, basically the €100 I spent on the game will go to waste since once Lotv comes out no one will play Hots? Since it's a standalone game it might even cost the full price of €60 instead of the price of an expansion?
I don't know how I feel about this. If they're smart, and Blizzard is or they wouldn't be where they are, they will have a heavily discounted price for those of us that have already bought WoL/HotS. Anyway, I'm sure someone will ask this question at a panel. We'll get clarification soon.
Yes I just went to the bathroom and while nature was on the phone this thought graciously entered my head. If Blizzard does this then maybe I will start loving Blizzard more. It's not only about the money but it's of the gesture towards the people who bought their products.
I just feel whiny tonight maybe or something.

most games these days are just shitty 10 hour campaigns that cost $60, you're worried about spending $60 on sc2?

I don't get those games, I buy a few games and play them to death (il-2 is a flight simulator for instance, it cost me €10 and I put in 200 hours, only flying one aircraft out of the 10 you have access to, it has amazing graphics and game play). you don't need to spend money to play LoL, Dota, HS, war thunder, archeage, tf2, etc and then there are lots of good games which aren't expensive if you wait for sales.
since 2010, i've only spent more than €10 on two games: Wol and hots.
compare that to something like cs:go or something which is like €15 ?
i think if you look at those numbers you realize that something is slightly off. i don't regret spending money on sc2, not for one second. but nor am i blind to its relatively high price compared to most other popular games.

Trailer confirmed there for movie? He said "i haven't even seen the trailer yet" seems like right.

They should use the CS:GO model (plus selling campaigns separately).
$15 multiplayer.
$30 for LotV campaign.
$10 for HotS campaign.
$10 for WoL campaign.
Bundle deals:
$40 for LotV game (campaign + multiplayer).
$20 for HotS game (campaign + multiplayer).
$20 for WoL game (campaign + multiplayer).
$60 for everything.
Note: all multiplayer should be the same, i.e. the latest version which is LotV (so HotS and WoL multiplayer automatically become LotV multiplayer).
The point is, the core game should become $15, and you can buy all the optional single-player add-ons you want.

That's €100 for a game that I will never touch again. That's kind of steep given that's essentially the price of laddering (since you get almost everything else for free). As I said as well, Lotv being standalone means it'll probably be more expensive than an expansion, which is basically milking the people who already bought the first two titles.
Next to that you can get ridiculously good games for next to nothing if you look out for sales.
€100 for WoL / Hots
€5 for Witcher 2
less than €4 for skyrim
€10 for il-2 cliffs of dover
lol / dota 2 / HS - €0
blizzard is selling its brand more than the actual product. if any gaming company released an rts of the quality of sc2 it would not sell as well.
no, i'm not a big fan of blizzard. i respect them as a company but i'm not a blind fanboi, so if their stuff is overpriced i'm going to say it. but i'll be forced to buy it since it's one of the 2 or 3 rts games that has an active community behind it.
Rofl... that logic is actually hilarious. Release prices for WoL + HoTS (combined) vs several years later used price for Skyrim? Makes sense. Hell since Skyrim is stand alone and LoTV is stand alone (and, apparently thats a bad thing) one could take the absurd logic and say that the price of Skyrim was wasted ~$40 for each of the elder scrolls games preceding it. Ridiculous.
