2 more notes:

1: Blizz claims over 10m subscribers, so around 900k increase. So a lot of people came back and probably bought the expansion

2:This time for the xpac you can get special stuff in the digital deluxe version which encourages more digital sales.


You know... thats is something else that is really fishy about blizzard numbers.

Given they had 9.1m subs before the expansion, and now it rose to 10m with the expansion selling 2.7m according to them. One has to wonder... doesnt that leave 1.8m active subscribers before the expansion? Thats how much blizzard actually has. Not the 9 million crap. Blizzard is throwing dirt on everyones eyes. Unless most are not even bothering to upgrade... wich is unlikely.

All those millions they have are not western players, thats for sure.

 

To the second point, im pretty sure most people dont care about that and go for the cheaper ones. Theres also a sense of security from physical copies.

Lol, they have no reason (and they really can't) lie about their number of subscribers. You're getting too deep into conspiracy mode here. Just accept that Blizzard games sell a lot. And expansions never reach 100% of the userbase, ESPECIALLY when only using first week numbers.

lol you can also read my post. I gave the option of the asian numbers beeing there, wich is most likely the case.

If you're gonna ask me to believe that WoW has 10 m subs in the west, im sorry, but im gonna call you crazy. There is no way 70% of your subers dont buy your expansion.
