"This was not our intention and amendments made to the FAQ following the announcement were a good-faith attempt to clarify this misinterpretation." "Some read the FAQ as us urging players to buy the core game now, in preparation for the expansion release," ArenaNet explained. This was before they realised the core game would be bundled with the Heart of Thorns expansion.
