I'm with you and I don't think the other person really gets just how expensive a WoW subscription is. It will never be integrated into Gamepass, it makes far too much money on its own.
It's possible they might bundle up all the expansions and make the entire thing "free" with gamepass. They're all bought and payed for as it is.
It'd make it seem attractive and it costs MS $0. And they get to keep the monetization model that's already in place.
Having their cake and eating it too.
The only ones eating the check, so to speak, would be everyone that already purchased all the dlc.
It seems like a appropriate mega-corp thing to do.
