In a lengthy post on X, Josh Greenfield responded to players’ concerns about SoD gold. He also asks if the WoW community finds Season of Discovery requires too much gold to play.

WoW players have raised various discussions about the hefty gold investment necessary for active participation in Season of Discovery. From purchasing skills and certain Runes to consumables, transportation options, and crafting recipes for powerful gear, everything requires gold. Dedicated gamers can invest significant time in farming to amass the required currency. However, due to their real-life responsibilities, many others can’t spend all their round-the-clock hours to farm for in-game gold.

And so, WoW player Miss Maven raised this question to Senior Game Producer Josh Greenfield. In response, Greenfield thoroughly described his gaming experience with SoD. He explained his viewpoint as a casual player, noting that the SoD gold requirements seemed normal from his perspective. However, he understood this wasn’t the case for many goal-oriented and altaholic players. After all, the gold requirements in SoD may prove to be a significant factor holding them back from a fulfilling gaming experience.

And so, Greenfield encouraged fans to share their experience with gold in SoD. He wanted to understand players’ perspectives on the matter genuinely:

Players’ responses vary. Some expressed contentment with the current situation in SoD. However, while Greenfield highlighted that the gold sinks aim to regulate and serve deflationary purposes, many players pointed out that the objectives of gold sinks might not significantly affect players with ample gold. Instead, it could negatively impact casual players and altaholics.
