so i logged back into wow to check out my mount and the new 4.3 patch and i saw the tyrael charger EVERYWHERE. im on a realm with very high pop and its everywhere, and i did a bunch of random dungeons and the people i was getting partied with also had them, and just because you have the mount doesnt mean your gonna use it, some ppl i met said they have it but didnt like it. lol. they must of gotten MILLIONS to freakin do that annual pass thing. i didnt think it was going to get that many ppl.
so i guess blizzard got what they wanted. tons of people are going to be playing D3 AND wow subs for another full year guarenteed. more people to play with in D3, woot!
(woops should of put this in general *reported*)

I have the D3 CE preordered, I've quit wow and even I have contemplated getting the annual pass. It's insanity the amount of pull that game has on someone.
In saying that I also don't like the ease at which people can get gear and items now. I remember back in vanilla getting the epic mount really took time and effort. Now in a lot of cases it's free.
Sure it's good for people who don't have the time or skill but it really took the challenge from the game.
One million annual pass subscribers is an achievement, what I wonder is whether or not they care how many people actually play the game with that time or their attitude now is "oh well we got a year's cash out of them, who cares whether they stay with the game because we're giving them something worth the time now".

I don't play that much WoW these days but have not regretted for a second about buying the Pass. Sometimes I just get the urges to play WoW and this purchase helps to ease those urges. Also a new mount, free Diablo 3 and a Beta invite for Mists of Pandaria. All awesome.

Removing Diablo 3 from the equation for a sec, do you save anything by getting the annual pass? been a year since i have played WoW so i don't really remember what the monthly fee was.

the annual pass has nothing to do with how you pay for wow (aka saving money) its just that you pay for a year total, you still pay in 1 month, 3 month or 6 month sets (each set having more savings than the piror)

true, im sure a lot of people would get it just for the fact of guarenteed access to the MoP beta
