That's roughly the same amount of money it cost for the prequel movies, that's insane.

Not confirmed but it wouldn't be surprising if true, I mean so much voice acting and the marketing is huge, 300M actually make sense.

That article is old and false.

Pachter estimates the game's budget is around $80 million + marketing.

Most of it looks true to me ! Installation for CB is around 27 gig atm, the game has less content than Vanilla wow and is much bigger thanks to voice acting everywhere, they didn't spend much money on anything else since they focus so much on voice acting and waifus.

Also here a slow clap (or a man attempting to fly) video :
