So I’ve heard about this “veteran account” thing a few days ago(one of the new things in Patch 6.1), how it has limits, yet allows you to play up to Level 20 for free.
This means, when my two accounts expire in Mid-March… I can never really leave WoW. They’ll be in this new mode until I choose to pay again. Either by this new token system, or whatever means.
Though of this being a bad idea, it depends on how you look at it. People like me who are all “FUCK YOU I’M DONE!”, this is Blizzard’s way of laughing in your face while singing the last few verses of Hotel California… “You can check out anytime you like… but YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE!!!” D:<
The other way (and correct way) to look at it, it's a way for people to come back to WoW but can't afford to. They'll still be able to play their alts for free(up to Level 20).
*sigh* To be honest, I'm actually glad they did do this. I don't WANT to quit WoW! I really don't! Even though I don't play it right versus the average player, I still like WoW. The memories I had with it.
It's just like the MRT Server. I can never leave. That song was right, that "you can never leave". As in, your feelings will never be able to leave what you enjoyed. Your anger and frustration will, but your feelings will never be able to.
