"Every edition of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns includes access to the core Guild Wars 2 game, so you can start your journey right away."

 

So new players get HoT and the base GW2 (presumably with 5 character slots), and all I get is HoT for the same price. Grrr!

Veteran Player Appreciation

 

For our long-standing fans and loyal players, we would like to say thank you and show our appreciation. For all players who registered the core Guild Wars 2® game prior to January 23, 2015 and who upgrade their account by prepurchasing and registering any Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns edition before Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns launch, we will add one additional character slot to your Guild Wars 2 account. The process of delivering your additional character slot will take us some time, but rest assured we will get it to you as soon as possible. Well provide more details about the specific timing soon.
