Lots of people seem opposed to the idea of finishing the 2.0 content to do so.
I think that is an accurate assessment, if its wrong, someone who is complaining please clarify what you actually want.
How many MMORPGs have actually required full completion of the previous expansion to touch the new one? That is a genuine question since I am entirely unaware of any (but my experience in MMO's is not all that expansive).
So yes, I was right, as I said, people don't want to have to complete the 2.0 stuff for heavensward. They think purchasing the game should give them access.
I never said it wasn't tedious. Nothing in that paragraph contests anything I said, it just a much more inefficient way of saying:
"People are annoyed they have to work their way up to new content, instead of just paying money and having it be made available to them."
