Looking at EB Games PC section and came upon this gem. Great for those who never got into WOW. For Click and Collect only.

You Were Meant for this World

You were meant for more. You were meant for epic adventure. Maybe even greatness. To charge your enemies without fear. To live boldly and run with comrades you never knew you had. To experience the impossible. Descend into World of Warcraft and join millions of mighty heroes in an online world of myth, magic and limitless adventure. An infinity of experiences await.

Includes:

The World of Warcraft Battle Chest contains:

  • Original World of Warcraft game
  • World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Expansion
  • World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King Expansion
  • World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Expansion
  • World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Expansion
  • World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor Expansion
  • Strategy guides
Features:
  • Create Your Hero - Build your own unique hero from one of thirteen player races and ten different classes. Then rise to epic heights of power as you challenge the deadliest evils and claim the greatest rewards in the land.
  • Form Powerful Alliances - Play solo or enlist your friends to join forces with you as you negotiate the vast, battle-scarred landscape of a world at war.
  • Embark on Epic Quests - Engage in thousands of custom quests – with more being added all the time. Confront Illidan the Betrayer, shatter the Lich King’s undead armies and much, much more.
  • Explore the Ever-Changing World of Azeroth - World of Warcraft is constantly updated with new adventures to undertake, lands to explore, and monsters to vanquish. For a change of pace, join the party at a seasonal event like Brewfest or Hallow’s End!
  • Engage in Player-vs-Player Combat - Take part in the war between the Alliance and the Horde, the two factions who battle for control of Azeroth. From Arenas and Battlegrounds to large-scale PvP zones and open world combat, there’s always glory to be won.
  • Battle to Level 100 - Ascend to new heights of power as you explore the verdant reaches of the Jade Forest, dodge the boiling vents of Gorgrond, and journey to Tanaan Jungle to battle Supreme Lord Kazzak.

    Don't do it! Spent over a decade hooked on this game. Love it though.

    • Piranha2004 on 22/02/2021 - 10:14

      Haha yeah I can imagine. So much content for a fiver.

    • DoesntEvenMatter on 22/02/2021 - 11:04

      Shadowlands sucked my group back in. First 12hr session I felt like death. Never again

    This will cost you far, far more than $5.

  • Flyingmoo on 22/02/2021 - 10:27

    The EBGames listing is wrong.
    The base game now includes Legion and Battle for Azeroth

    Plus the level cap for the base game is 1-50. You need Shadowloands to go from 50 to 60.

  • Rockgod70 on 22/02/2021 - 10:29

    Save your money on the monthly subscription and plan Guild Wars 2 instead, it's free to play.

    • Hybroid on 22/02/2021 - 10:36

      Enjoyed GW2 but nowhere near the same experience. A month of WoW and all it's content for 2 coffees a month is reasonable.

      • Rockgod70 on 22/02/2021 - 10:40

        That's fair, but looking at the bigger picture; you're paying over $100 per year.
        I have friends that have played both and they say its not that different, just differing art styles.
        $100+ per year for a game or free for something very similar? Just putting the options out there, this is OzBargain, afterall,

        • Hybroid on 22/02/2021 - 10:46
          +6

          It's nowhere near similar though. Completely different experience, features. endgame, community, quality of gameplay etc. I'm sure there's people that prefer GW2 over WoW, but vice versa would be far larger userbase and you really cannot say they are equivalent.

          Also, people are paying $100+ for PS5/Xbox games nowadays. That's nothing for a whole year of content to some.

        • Freestyle on 22/02/2021 - 15:38

          “say its not different” dude its day and night at the end game, why do you thinj Gw2 isnt as popular

          • Rockgod70 on 22/02/2021 - 16:04
            -1

            @Freestyle: I wasn't after an argument as to which one is better, just that there is a 'similar' option that is free to play.
            Sure, it's not as popular, but they don't have the advertising budget that Blizzard has.
            There's still a few million that play.
            To put into perspective; it's $12.50 a month (i think someone here mentioned this), that's $150 per year.
            It's been out for 16 years - that's $2400 if you've been playing since day 1. That doesn't include the cost of the game!
            Currently GW2 is free to play for base game and both expansions are about $30 from memory, but at most it's been $80 for base game and $60 for each of the 2 expansions. Still well short of the $2400.
            Again, not trying to start an argument just offering up an OzB alternative for those that don't want to get roped in to a monthly fee when there are other enjoyable options available.

            • Freestyle on 22/02/2021 - 18:15

              @Rockgod70: Its no where close to a few million that play, its barely a few hundred thousand and probably in lower tens of thousands in Australia, marketing is not its only issues, if marketing was the only thing world of warcraft was good at, then how do you explain the hundreds of thousands of twitch viewers during major patches/expansion launches?

              The way you word it is misleading, WoW is a much different experience in every single way compared to GW2

              lol $2400, you are just purposely bringing in big numbers for no reason. if $16 per month is a lot to you, you shouldnt be playing games, go study/find work. Priorities

            • DoesntEvenMatter on 22/02/2021 - 19:19

              @Rockgod70: It's over 16 years dude. You spend on dam coffee! You need to take a seat on the Frozen Throne and just chill

        2 coffees a month?

        $17.25 per month = $8.60 coffees, where are you getting those?

        Totally agree that WoW content is worth it, but it's more like a coffee a week.

          Fair point, was looking at USD price as pay in GBP. Still worth it!

          Where ya'll getting your coffees from? $1 from 7-11 so quite abit of coffees on my budget.

          WoTLK was the best expansion IMO.

        • Intoxicoligist on 22/02/2021 - 11:50

          Starbucks/Zaraffa's frappachino's are all in this price range.

      • o2saint on 22/02/2021 - 10:51

        Where do you buy $2.50 coffee from?

    • Freestyle on 22/02/2021 - 15:37

      and play a game with shitter end game progession, no oceanic servers, like 1/10th the playerbase

      why

  • sharkie0123 on 22/02/2021 - 10:34

    Save your money, the new model from blizzard is buy only the current expansion and the monthly subscription to play, once playing you can pay for the monthly sub using in game gold if you make enough

    • magic8ballgag on 22/02/2021 - 10:49

      This is a better alternative for those wanting to trial the game or existing players wishing to spin up a second account.

    • krisspy on 22/02/2021 - 11:00

      Are we talking 24/7 farming amounts of gold or can casual players maintain a gold-only subscription?

      I wish they had this model back in vanilla, I remember having like 50k from just reselling rune/moon cloths from am to pm (perks of being on this game day and night)

      • Shostaholic on 22/02/2021 - 11:20
        +1

        It's possible to maintain gold-only subscription from just playing the game casually if you can be smart about managing your gold, e.g. not splurging on vanity items (mounts/toys/transmog). You might also be somewhat restricted with high end progression as it requires quite a bit of gold to spend on expensive gear upgrades and best consumables/enhancements.

        • maskedmustelid on 22/02/2021 - 12:38
          +1

          Agreed, not very hard at all. Never bothered with the high-end raiding anyway as LFR/LFD still lets you experience the vast majority of the content without having to invest the time/gold/skills. Didn't bother with professions or buying upgrades or consumables, just sold everything I found on the AH. Get hooked and waste enough time playing, and it's feasible to never have to buy a Blizzard game with actual money again.

    • deelaroo on 22/02/2021 - 23:39

      Or just some fraction of an hour at work vs hours in game. Yeah cool idea…?

  • NotSuchABigMac on 22/02/2021 - 10:44

    This is worth buying because the 1 month free is worth about 16 dollars, I believe?

    All the rest of this stuff now comes free with subscription, so don't assign any value to it:
    Original World of Warcraft game
    World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Expansion
    World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King Expansion
    World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Expansion
    World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Expansion
    World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor Expansion
    Strategy guides

  • o2saint on 22/02/2021 - 10:57

    I have been playing since late 2007, just around end of BC days. Have loved this game ever since but I finally quit playing in Shadowlands because the expansion is totally rubbish. It’s designed to waste your time through transport and running around instead of spending any actual time on unique content which is basically non existent once you are at cap.

    I’m in a strong guild of 500 and any given time we used to have 50-60 players playing and socialising. It’s dropped to less than 15 now and dropping. Haven’t seen this big of a drop this early in any expansion.

    I hope the drop in quality is only because of COVID and WFH restrictions and hopefully WoW will bounce back with next expansion.

  • lilchonk on 22/02/2021 - 11:33

    Sad part is every time I try and get hooked I play for like 3 days and then get bored. I can never get that same itch from when I started in 2005.

    • magic8ballgag on 22/02/2021 - 12:04

      You should check out WoW Classic!

      • lilchonk on 22/02/2021 - 12:28

        I played for a little bit at the beginning and unfortunately gave up at around level 35.

        I hate being old, it's like there's no time and things feel less fun.

  • lilchonk on 22/02/2021 - 11:35

    Honestly wish there was a subscription for an ultra casual like me where it's more based on the amount of time you play.

    • tlai on 22/02/2021 - 13:45

      Move to Korea. (not sure if any other countries charger per time). China changed from pay per time to monthly I believe.

        Okay nice I might move to Korea. Which one? North sounds good this time of year.
