So I got an email awhile ago offering me a free trial of WoW since I bought SC2 when it came out. I've been bored and thought I would give it a shot since its been so popular. As you can see from my avatar I have a dwarf paladin up to level 60, the max level I can go right now, and did it all through questing so I thought the flow of the game was nice. I've been doing some research about purchasing the game but have come across a disturbing conclusion which leads me to my question.
If I wanted to start playing WoW right now I would have to buy the original WoW, plus the BC expansion (the blizzard store has a chest of the two games for 40 bucks), then I'd have to buy the WotLK expansion for another 40 bucks and then the new expansion (cata) for another 40 bucks. So I'd have to pay $120 bucks to buy the game? I'm assuming I get the first month free?
The only reason I ask is I come from EQ2, Warhammer, and Aion (briefly) with the bulk of my time (5+ years) spent in EQ2. The thing with EQ2 is when a new expansion comes out it includes the original game and all previous expansions up to that point. I wouldn't have to buy EQ2 and then the 4 expansions or whatever they have out now all together. It would be one game. Is that right or am I missing something?
