So I see people around saying you can buy the entire adventure with gold ahead of time, ofc meaning the following chapters will only be playable once their respective week arrives.
but unlike buying with real money I cant find an option to buy separate wings using my gold.
im only asking this because I want to play the anomaly mode which requires you to own the entire adventure ( not complete it ).
does this mean only people who bought the full adventure using cash gets to enjoy this mode for the next 4 weeks? or am I missing something?
You can't buy the full adventure (all the wings) with goldahead of time. So, if you want to play anomaly mode now, you have to spend money or wait 3 weeks and buy the rest of the wings with gold and then play the anomaly mode. That's it.
Nothing is locked behind the paywall, except the gold Zayle, since it's not craftable.

you have to pay to climb the wall or wait, but money is time so its a paywall!
No.
Time is money only if the two are directly connected. I'm taking a shit right now, kindda smells like the bs in your post, and I'm not earning any money for the time spent here doing that. I was at work earlier today and I also went on a bathroom break. I've earned money while in there. Why? Because unlike when I'm at home, time spent at work grants me money so in that case time is money.

My friend, Your sentence contradicts itself. That's exactly what a paywall is :).
Not looking for any argument :)
Anyways I got my answer, kind of unfair that cash buyers get the access to anomaly/Zayle an gold buyers don't. I don't see any reason why gold should be treated differently as there was no mention anywhere about this thing. ( not that I saw anyway ).
ingame gold has value to us and to blizzard just as much as Real cash does. sort of....I guess. I'm no specialist.
It's a paywall that lasts 3 (or 4?) weeks because there is no possibility to get to the content now without spending money.
After the 3 weeks there is no paywall anymore. Feels unfair cause I have been saving my gold for this but can imagine why blizzard does it (to get more revenue out of it, which is a smart move from a sales perspective).
Even though it cannot be exchanged, there is a monetary value to in-game currency (gold) simply because you can buy items with it that are also available for real currency. And even though the content is optional, it is still restricted to those that didn't fork over their hard earned coins, be it gold, euros, pounds, dollars, .....

it's clearly locked behind paywall, why you guys trying to defend the fact
No it is not.
You can buy with gold one wing per week, up to full adventure.
Nothing to defend, that's just how it works.
The only advantage of buying with money is having immediate access to all the wings, without waiting.
Paywall is when something can be accessed to ONLY with money. This is not the case. You can choose.
You can;t play it until they launch each chapter, still. Buying it with money just gives you access to Anomaly mode atm, but you won't have chapters three thru 5 open until the weeks they launch.

It seems so to me (I bought it)
Since as you said you can only buy the chapters seperate, but who knows..maybe they will fix it (I dont think so)
So if you bought it with gold, have fun waiting I guess
last wing is coming june 6, so 18 days, yeah
anomaly mode and golden zayle locked behind paywall
yea im having the same issue beat everything w gold so far
pls give me new mode!!!
The full adventure can be bought with gold.
It just releases by steps, so you have to wait one week for each wing.

i can't access it anyway, there is wall in front of me. yes, for month, but still
It is more like a pre-order bonus system that other games have but not a paywall yeah.
It's still not a paywall.
you have to pay to climb the wall or wait, but money is time so its a paywall!
It's literally a paywall.
Not that it matters i can't play the adventure anyway because they haven't fixed the bug yet.
You can only buy it with money, only donators can use golden Zayle right now
No.
