2 of WoW’s biggest YouTubers complain about The War Within’s early access, are part of the problem

Due to the limitation of a content, two of the biggest WoW YouTubers complain about the Early Access of WoW: The War Withinonly to realize shortly afterwards that they themselves are part of the problem.

Who is complaining and why? Anyone who has purchased WoW: The War Within in advance for around 50 to 90 euros has been able to enjoy the new content since August 23, 2024. However, some challenges in the new World of Warcraft expansion are locked until the official launch on August 27, 2024.

The two well-known WoW YouTubers and streamers Asmongold and Esfand only realized that the locked content also includes the depths from level 4 onwards when they had mastered level 3 of the new dungeon content.

The early access of WoW – The War Within has started, here is the cinematic:

“Look at all these idiots.”

How do content creators react to the restriction? When Asmongold realizes that he has to wait until the official launch to be able to tackle Level 4 of the Depths, he comments on YouTube as follows: “You’re telling me that we paid $40 not to be able to play the game? That’s stupid, isn’t it?”

After that, Asmongold admits that he would do the same if it were his game: When asked if he had to wait to tackle Level 4 of the Depths, he commented on YouTube as follows: “It’s so damn easy money. Absolutely. Look at all the idiots. Bro, who the hell puts up with that? Okay, we’re doing it right now.”

Esfand sees it pragmatically: You just don’t want to wait until next week. It’s available, so you play. Also there, by the way, was Asmongold’s shadow: McConnell. His question to the two streamers: “Don’t you think that your behavior contributes to the dubious practices of the gaming industry?” Esfand’s answer: “Sure… but don’t you also have a cell phone?”

With his counter question, Esfand is alluding to the announcement of Diablo Immortal at BlizzCon 2018, where the Blizzard developers were booed and could only respond with a helpless question: “Don’t you guys have phones?”
