opinions are like bacteria, everyone has them but no one wants to take anyone else's on board

It's $10 we were told we wouldn't have to pay. It's extra money ON TOP of a sub, so technically it's MORE for subscribers, $25 as it requires you to spend $15 to get a $10 discount. And we have NO IDEA what we're even paying for. Quick, tell me, how big is Makeb? How many missions? How many class missions? Is there a daily area? How many flash points? Does it have a raid? New PVP tier? PVP area? Is Cathar included? What exactly are we paying $10 FOR. You can't tell me it's worth it because you have no idea what you're getting.

Show me a quote or link that ever says that. We've been giving a ton of content for free this year. Asking only $10 for a new planet, cap, missions and more is not to much to ask for.
That's why they call it space, cause there is so much of it.

Furthermore, it doesnt matter what the price is, the MMO market has competition and i compare this product to it's competitors, whom currently are providing superior content updates for their subscribers at no additional charge, with expansions that include far more content than a single zone and a 5 level cap raise. This is content-update level stuff, but they want to nickle and dime us instead of giving us content updates like should be given to paying subscribers. Again i point to trion, i'm not a rift fan but their developer is great, they have already published more than triple the content through updates than SWTOR has done in its lifetime, all major SWTOR content so-far after this will be additional-expense content. Hell, even STO is outpacing SWTOR now with a whole planet, guild updates, and more quests at no additional charge to its customers. Its bad when STO is releasing more content updates without charging than SWTOR... What? a new world, increased level cap by 5 and continuation of the class storyline is not enough to make and expansion? Didn't WoW do that twice? cataclysm and MoP.. they had a few other things in the like new races and classes but we DON'T KNOW WHAT BW HAS PLANNED. we have not played the expansion so we should not judge it. And I don't know about you.. but I'm perfectly fine with the content they have put out. If you have played since launch you should have a good amount of credits.. and those credits can be used to buy 90% of the new cartel stuff. and rise of the ghouls, the constant addition to the legacy system, warzone/flashpoints and armor. I don't know I've never really needed ALOT so to me this is all quite a good amount.

Meaning that if you were a sub and you bought Makeb, it was very much worth it. This is not advertised as coming with any game time what soever. It does not say that the five days of "early access" whatever that means, will be added on to the length of your sub.

Playing all those Blizzard games with expansions taught me that expansions cost money, but are usually cheaper than what I paid for the original.
