Most mmorpgs also do not come out with an x-pac every 6 months, they come out maybe once a year and usually cost 20 dollars, so if guild wars actually accomplishes this. Then yes, it is to make up for monthly fees, which will basically end up costing you the same as monthly fees if you are a regular addicted player. Not that this is a bad thing of course. (Do you actually think there will be a player in 6 months who will not buy the expansion? Maybe 10% of the active players if the hype is still this big then.)

Because with the original, we got a new game worth of content, plus a game engine. With the expansions, we only the get the content, presumably not a new engine (a new engine every 6 month would be madness).

Between 30 and 40 dollars is my guess.
