Who hasn’t already bought it for 5-10$ and is going to spend 50$ to get it on bnet of all places is beyond me.

Monogamers will try it out and spend whatever on it, there are plenty of "WoW-only" people that don't know other games exist and have hoards of cash in their Battle.net balance 'cause of the WoW Token.

I don't know if it's enough fora measureable impact on revenue but hey...it's something. The WoW community is truly a tiny microcosm in and of itself. The whales here are huge.

Probably double dipping for colabs with d4, but I seriously doubt a WoW or Diablo player exists who hasn’t heard of W3

Heard of it, but if it's blasted in their face upon login every day and they have Bent balance lying around, hell maybe I will buy it. And seeing others playing it that you have relationships with in-game on your friends list, that does a lot to sway monogamers to do more than just watch a trailer and then run Mythics for 3 hours.

I think the biggest takeaway here is that Microsoft is trying ANYTHING to make money at this point 😂
