Right now, you get beta access and play the campaign from there.

I've added that to the OP.


Wait? Pre-ordering automatically means you get beta?

It does! Isn't it sweet?

For like the 5 of us who aren't in the beta yet.

i figured LotV would be $60 USD because its a stand alone product.

they did this giant long beta and are only asking $40 USD, and its not an expansion that requires a different purchase....
ATVI is going to make fuck all on this. this makes it even easier for them to push aside Starcraft and RTS like it doesn't exist.

if the retail box copy is also $40 USD then just wow.
my how the RTS genre has fallen.
u get onto the ladder and a campaign for just $40.

What else is there that you would want besides a ladder and a campaign from an RTS?

my point is that they are giving away the farm for $40.
i want the game to make a tonne of cash so that Blizzard will keep making AAA level titles in the RTS genre.

It's a stand-alone, but still an expansion.

You have to select Beta: Legacy of the Void as your region for SC2 in the launcher.

Easy purchase. I'm excited for the campaign. I'm sure Raynor will discover the his love is artificially created by the hive mind who is using his body to make love to Kerrigan. Also fenix is a hybrid.

It's still an expansion, to a 5+ years old game as well (will be closer to 6 if they won't release it until next year). I know it's Blizzard and stuff, but even 40$ is too much for that. Graphics is dated, engine itself is terrible (jokes on Blizz for using it for their moba too). Would consider buying it for 20$ maybe, although I have no interested in playing ladder/mp anymore.

So yeah, only interested in campaign and HS cardback so far. Probably won't buy it at all.

It also grants LotV closed beta access if you don't already have it

Pre-ordered mine, as did my brothers <3

LOTV is still standalone, right? I probably can convince some people to start playing again (including myself)!

Edit: Read the thread, question answered. Not sure if I'll get back into ladder again though. I got burned out after playing from WOL beta to just before HOTS.

I believe so, otherwise they might change the price, and get a nonzero amount of people upset - having to buy a ton of previous expansions is annoying. I think that's why WoW is now base game + most recent expansion.

Only $40! Not too bad. EU4 went for $40 and that was worth the cost. This will definitely be.

WOW ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

I bought WOL and HOTS (again) like... a month ago for $40 and now we have the complete collection for $60.

Me too, I have now bought both 3 times. Expensive times for a SC collector..

Life's hard.
Ah well at least there isn't a paytowin option in SC...

I hope they don't start selling portraits or stupid shit like that...

I hope they do. Portraits are a great thing to sell because they do absolutely nothing other than give you a cool avatar in chat menus and maybe intimidate weak-willed opponents. And if they implemented microtransactions with portraits or something, maybe even dropping the price a bit, they'd continue to see revenue coming in long after release, similar to Hearthstone.

I never bought any League skins because fuck that game, but I've been playing Blizz games for 15 years. I'd gladly buy a few portraits if they gave me the option.
