As a player who has been playing GW2 nonstop since shortly after launch, I can confirm that these sales prices are an insane value for dollar per hours of content that you get to play! Dollar isn’t the right word, it’s more like pennies per hour of gameplay. I’m strongly considering buying another account and starting over from scratch. This game is that great.
Honestly, I'm not sure if the EoD / HoT+PoF codes are separate, but I can confirm the new player experience is WILD for a vet. A bunch of my friends are doing 0-hero runs rn. So you might even be able to pick up the xpac bundle and give the codes to separate friends if you already had part(s) of the game. 😂
never understood why would u play on another account? like whats the point? Im genuinly curious. Especially in a game like gw2 when theres no classic"endgame"
@@cosminmocanu5254 It's mostly to have 2 accounts leveled to do dailies on from what I've seen. Whether it's Fractals or just earning Wizard's Vault rewards. Some just like having 2 accounts leveled to full clear raids twice/week as well! 😄
Agreed on deluxe. Altho, it's worth mentioning the JW deluxe edition is actually kind of worth imo b/c it comes with a set of infinite gathering tools. ^^
@@traveling.down.the.road56 Nice! Ultimate is usually worth if you know you're going to use the gems anyway!! Or if the mid-tier item that you're getting essentially "for free" is worth it for you as well. - The SotO mid-item was just an emote, but the Janthir Wilds one comes with a set of unlimited harvesting tools which is pretty *huge* Quality of Life for new players, for example! 😁
@@GW2Pseudo I agree, but even though I already have a few sets of unlimited gathering tools, I got the ultimate version for the table decoration and the gems. That plus I try to support Anet when ever I can. I usually buy some gems about once or twice a year, unless there’s something really great in the gem store, then I might buy more gems that year. The best things I’ve ever bought with gems are the shared inventory slots and the salvage-O-matic machines, plus unlimited gathering tools and the glyphs that go in them.
With the new expansion just coming out next month, I hope more people decide to return and new players are enticed to expand their experience. Also don't sleep on the living world seasons they help tie the expansions together. I just hoped for more sales on the upgrades items
Agreed. & From what I've seen the actual games vs "jump-start" bundle packs tend to alternate being on sale. *August* is typically also a good sale time for items, but don't quote me! 😄
Agree 100%. Or at the very least grab all the Expansions you can & buy the Living World episodes via Gold > Gem conversion when they're on sale again! 😄
I bought the first three extensions to have all the classes and they were very cheap. I honestly dont really understand what the others offer except some story.
Are there any sales going on for just the Living World seasons? I already purchased the first 3 expansions without realizing the pack I was buying didn't include the Living World seasons.
I looked into this for someone else and it seems that, while there "was no specifically Living world-only pack" the $50 (USD) price *was* probably still worth even if you were only going for LW seasons, as far as looking for a sale price. HOWEVER: If you had/have any LW seasons *at all* it's probably worth getting the deluxe version of the new preorder or just using $/gems to buy the Living World packs that you're missing in-game: Since they pro-rate the episode bundles for each episode you already unlocked. Also don't worry if you missed this sale. I almost guarantee this will be the new "sale price" and will probably crop up around the Holidays or so, if not sooner! 😄
Good Question: I don't think I've ever seen them all this "affordable" collectively. The Living world collection is marked as $27.19 through the steam bundle. But doesn't appear to actually be purchasable outside of said bundle, so it seems pretty worth it if you are missing most/all of the episodes! Keep in mind that Launcher vs Steam Purchases are non-transferable. So be sure to buy it on the platform you're already set up on. --- It's worth mentioning, as well, that at time of writing Living World Season 2 (ONLY) is purchasable through the in-game store and is marked down to ~1,000 gems or about $12.50. So if you only need these episodes it might be better to buy through this store. Let me know what you end up going with b/c I guarantee others have this question as well! & Hope this helps!! ^^
@@xXalimousiosXx Hmm. I poked around on forums & such and it turns out you *can* buy each LW bundle in-game w/ gems/gold right now. (I just couldn't see them because I already own them all.) Each is ~that 1000 gem price. *However they seem to be pro-rated and discount whichever you already own.* So it might be worth checking/doing the math to see which (if any) you actually have unlocked. You may have gotten a few episodes just by logging in at the right time(s). >> If you have a couple scattered here & there, or are just rich in-gold in-game this may be the way to go! If you truly have none of Seasons 2-5 tho the $50 bundle seems like your best bet. It also may be worth asking support via a ticket (Google ANet support ticket' - not the In-Game reporter) either before or after your purchase to ask if they'll refund the cost of the 3 expansions before you use the codes on an alt account(s). Worst case scenario: They say 'no' or you end up with a couple alt accounts you can blast with the lvl 80 ticket (I'd use each expansion code on a different account if you do this - perfectly ok with Terms of Service btw.) for eazy Wizard's Vault Dailies + gold! \o/
how do you get 75% discount and then have it permanently at 30usd even while being an OLD AF dlc???? PoF shouldn't be 30usd SPECIALLY if you previously own HoT, when it wasn't "free".
@@GW2Pseudo yeah, hopefully i'd still be around gw2 in 2 or 3 months. It's unlikely tho because there are always new interesting games coming out and I don't get any notification or alert when there are offers in gw2 website. Gonna be waiting tho.
This video is non-sponsored btw. I iust really like the game. Its also incredibly solid value for $20 imo. 😄
Hey, nice meeting your channel. I was talking about this sale to friends and girlfriend. I absolutely love this game
It's really great, even just the free version. So you can always show it off with that to start! 😆
ty for being concise
I tried! I hope it was worth it for someone!! ^^
Straight to the point, thanks man
np I tried lol. & It's a great game, so if you have any tips or questions lmk!

KI always a solid music choice
I want a new one SO bad. Just for the music XD

Yeah. I'd def just rather save the 10 & wait for a sale on a skin(s) that I really want! :D
@@GW2Pseudo I bought the Ultimate version for the discounted gems, which I can use to buy a cosmetic item of my choice.

tyty! If you have any suggestions for the future lmk! :D
If you can afford it, buy it all while the discount is there. The game is awesome with hours and hours and hours of content that fits every style.

what if i want to get all living world seasons only? 40% seems good at the bundle but is it as cheap as standalone ?

I went for Complete (All Expansion + LWS) + Ultimate Edition SotO + Ultimate Edition JW. Then went in-game and got Heroic + All Deluxe. xDDDDDDDDD

I wouldn't worry about it too much, it goes on sale like every 2-3 months now. So if you missed it, it'll prob get knocked down again!
