$40 for an expansion is bullshit.. If there isn't an upgrade discount (from WoL to HoTs) I wont be buying this on release.

I would be fine with paying 200 dollars for the game if they bring back the features needed


four months, hopefully will be enough to balance current flaws... probably not though

How is $40 unfair, a brand new full game ranges anywhere from 69-100, half of that for a full campaign plus MP upgrades is perfectly fair.

The pricing is fine by me, Expansion or otherwise I was happy to pay the standard Australian price for most any new Generation game @ $80-99. Yes, $40 is fine.

Still its also the very first week of my 4th year of Uni ((

It is ridiculous because it will cost 39.99 € in Europe, but that are like 55$ in real exchange rate.

I hate you blizzard.

It's $45 AUD for normal and $65 AUD for digital deluxe. (See your battle net account for proof).

Lol at all the cheap asses complaining about $40.

I got the collectors edition for $150 and have spent over $400 on event subscriptions.

The pricing is prefect but release date may be too soon. I don't know why people complain about the price. HotS has both multiplayer and sp and also top notch quality cinematics which are so fucking expensive to make. Can't really think of any game that give you this much in 1box.

US$ price is without VAT.

Blame the government for charging too much VAT if you think prices are too high.

Are people really complaining about the price? 40$ is dirt cheap for a game you while be playing a lot, I remember games being a LOT more expensive a while ago (and maybe console games still are, i dunno).

The Blizzard Store is always very expensive (60€ for WoL/60€ for DIII), if you buy it at a retailer or at another online shop, the price will be around 30-35€.

Blizzard will add Global Play to HotS / WoL, if it works like the Global Play in DIII, you will only need one game and can play on all regions
