Don't agree with the message but understand your sentiment
look with all the gripes I have about update 11 cant side with this one even though the sentiment for the OP is understandable.
Lets face it anyone knocking him in light of the way information about the update was passed with many of us (I am speaking mostly for myself but sure others do feel this way) as a cash grab type release its easy to pick apart the sentiment behind this.
When you look at it outside the other issues we have it really is a good idea I know for me I tend to wait to go into new content till every one in my guild has access now and since many of them are premium we do that as a courtesy not to spoil things.
With this if I wished to partake in it means all my guild could run on day one and they can see if its worth buying in the long run. If its not I saved them a ton of points if it is the company makes money.
I already decided that I will wait to unlock the new class whenever update 12 drops so buying guess passes specially since they are pretty cheap wouldnt dent the bonus points that people keep throwing up at us subscribers.
But honestly I do get the Op's sentiment there just is no real perks to being VIP outside just being able to be one for me at least. I really thought a paid subscription would mean less worry about what I need to have and more content without fuss and I have said several times if they had to raise the rates to insure that do so. But with this and many of our perceived perks being eroded given away or sold in the store its hard to see the benefits of the pay model outside the few of us who it would cost more to convert.
