Seriously SE???

[Seif]

3.0 is practically an entire game. It's supposed to include the same amount of content that 2.0 did at launch. So SE claims.

In no way whatsoever is that comment true. SE has necer said that there's THAT much content and starting that kind of rumours without any quote nor fact helps nobody.

On the topic itself: this pricetag does seem kind of bonkers given that based on what they've shown us, only a few new areas are being added.
Can't say this will stop me from buying it but I can't assume the rest of the player base is on the same level of enthusiasm.
