Give me your opinion on whether you think we deserve to pay to play world of warcraft online. Is it fair or not fair, but the main point is that if its worth paying 10-13 dollars a month?

wourld of warcraft is defintly wourth paying per mounth to play it. unlike outher games like the cod series they do not have alot of canaction issiwes or bugs. wow has alot of things to offer like being a pet collector, mount collector. as well you can do raids, pvp, dungens, and lvling. what i love most is that you can make gold but using the ah buy selling items.

I think they should make family acounts.........cause if your a parent and have to pay for all of your kids acounts and you have 3 kids thats $45....I think thats a rip and i want to be able to share an acount with my friends.....(even though he pays the money and i dont pay a cent)

Well you could always join a private server but that's another story. Well 10$ to 13$ is pretty much worth the price even I'm not playing WOW... 10 dollars times Kajillions of People around the globe that is playing is ALWAYS equals to a Gameplay Improvement and Service Upgrades...

I think it's fair. They are giving new content every other month or so, they are pretty quick to resolve major issues and have good customer support, and they hold tons of servers that typically allow people to play with little to no lag, these are the things that your money pay for really. It's a pretty fair deal over all.

I personally think that the online charge to play the game is not fair. I believe the money spent to buy the main game and expansions is fair enough to be able to play the game online. I believe WoW are ripping us off with the monthly charge. I already spend 80 euros on all the expansions together, i think that is quite some amount. Personally, although WoW is a business, they take it too far with the online fee, thats the main thing. However, the online experience is indeed worth it for 10-13 usd a month.

world of warcraft is a buisness, and to play this game on internet you've to pay, they created it only for this reason, if you want to play it you have to pay a bit of money every month, i think is right. There are a lot of other games that you can play online without pay a single cent, i play COD4 every day on internet and it's all free. I tryed WoW for two weeks, i like it a lot, i played with warcraft 3 for years and i love his world, WoW is an awesome game. But i don't have enaugh money to play it .

Hi mike I have world of warcraft, but i dont like to pay every month for a game(so i dont play it). I just dont think its worth it. Yet many can disagree with me that is my opinion. Also there are some people who plays on free servers and dont pay any money. Dunno about how legit is that though.

With the money costs to of developing new patches every month, they need your money so that they can pay the developers to release new and better patches. Although, I do think that the every month paying is abit too much, the least that they could do for us is reduce the price to like $5 or so, that way more people would be able to play it. I know people who die because they don't have enough money to pay for WoW, or maybe their parents won't let them, especially when you have an addiction to it. If I were you, I would save your money unless you really really want to play it.
