| SoE was more of a 'when expansion time comes, we'll give you a continent worth of shit to do every 2 years', wherein Blizzard is a 'we'll give you a shitload to do patched in over a period of 2 years'.
SoE would sell their end of it as a high end expansion, as it's giving alot to do (albeit maybe not fully functional lot to do) all at once, wherein WoW's is free as it's slowly fed to the playerbase. Not saying either way is wrong really; it's two different ways to get new content out to the masses.
Now that's not to say I fully agree with EQ2's way of charging a smaller amount for content, but even though they do charge, it doesn't really bother me all that much. I mean it's hard for me to tell someone "no I can't give you $10" to someone whom i've paid over a thousand dollars in subscription fees to over the years.
Things get so 'ehh' though when it comes down to calling one right, and one wrong. |
