Please do not hate on autists.
WoD also launched in...october? I think? And had poor numbers.
That's also right around the timeframe I'm saying they WILL have one: for Xmas time (end of November to December).
Did you even read what I wrote? Or is the autism too bad even for that?

WoD launched on 11/13/2014 (this information is not hard at all to retrieve), now do some maths... I think you can make it, I trust in those few cogwheels in your brain, do not fail me pls.
Oh... Do you need to check
to remember numbers and understand that during an xpac launch subscription numbers are already increasing without trial periods?
Now... Guess who is autistic or clueless? ^^

I wonder if the mods are going to pm you as well.
I'll break it down nice and slow.
Look at your graph.
Take note of wrath's roughly even curve, and how it's also still kinda roughly along that same nice slight curve for cata.
Now take note of the huge nosedive for MoP.
Now take note of the uptick for WoD, but that peak, and here is the part I pray you can actually see:
WoD underperformed to wrath and cata.
Also, About a month or two after WoD launch, it nosedived again.
So again, WoD underperformed (as I originally said) to the lowest point since vanilla. And in order to drum up business, they released the trials far earlier than before.
Need me to school you on anything else?

I have to disagree. For sure Legion (@ release) has much less subscriptions that WoD (@ release) only by looking at how WoD ended and general opinion of player base... Beside Legion can have a good trand of increasing active players but it's not going to be really different from WoD. In other words: less subscriptions and comparable trands at start for Legion don't make postponing trial a good marketing strategy (beside that a marketing strategy is not made on fly in 2 weeks). Oh forgot to say that my first MoP 10 day trial started on 10/22/2012, can't say if it was already available before that date.
ps) idd... never loved drama queens xD

More that likely there's not going to be xpac specific trial this time... Still talking with a GM.

All signs point to not happening this time.
Legion is too popular, their business is doing too well, they have no need for it.

Nearly there. Had a chat with a GM a few days ago and he said that Legion trial was not considered at all because developers had no time to plan it at all (I think we can assume that previous expansions trials were planned @ release then). He cryptically assumed that among other factors is that now former subscribers have "veteran" status if they want to try out gameplay and performances in general. He didn't make any statement about what should happen in the future tho.

Is this something to do with the new guy at Blizz? Maybe they've changed their strategy and will no longer allow free 10 day trials?
Strange that they haven't continued it this far into Legion!
I'm actually hanging out for a bit of a sticky beak at Legion. Maybe we need a guide for what to do and what to get in Legion in 10 days for Vets!
