Is this game worth the 12.95, of course not. Look at what we got before compared to now. what we use to get in one update before is equivalent to a year or two of updates we get now. Anyone that thinks that 12.95 is still good value is just plain wrong. No one in their right mind would think so. But people will continue to play and considering Square Enix is one of if not the greediest game companies out there, I don't see it. SE is the one that charges $15-$20 for iOS and Android games when everything else is $5.

For those that say that the manpower is not there, well not our problem, if that is the case, drop the price accordingly. The expansion is being paid for by our monthly sub fees, it shouldn't be, that money is supposed to be for connection and regularly updates. The expansion should be paid for by the price of the actually expansion. Which of course they have overpriced.

In other words, what you're trying to say is:
"DUR DUR DUR I hate dis product an its to expnsive but ima buy it neway n complain DUR DUR DUR."

[sarcasm]You are obviously very intelligent when it comes to money, and SE should listen to you for financial advice.[/sarcasm]

Well considering I run the finance department for a national company, I actually know what I am doing.

Archon.

seriously, what wrong with you? It doesn't matter if the article is from 2010, he wanted to know which mmos made more money going ftp.

Google if you want. Look up D&D and LOTR, find out I am right, and shut your mouth.

why is it so hard for people to believe a ftp model can make money, and more money than a sub plan. You think these people making the decisions don't know what they are doing? They make 7 figure salaries and did a ton of research on comparing the two different models. You think they sat down and said, hey, I don't feel like making money anymore, lets be kind and go ftp. But I guess some people here seem to think they obviously know more than those people, and have no education or experience to back it up. I make comments, because, I have 25 years of experience in business.

If you took the first 4 years of content and compared it to the current couple years of content. Give it to people that are not into games (because most feel blessed to take anything a company gives them) and ask them if the price should be the same for both levels of content. I bet you won't find one person that says they should be equal.
You think there isn't an issue, and many here, because you are ability to think properly is clouded by your level for SE. But, just because you think it is fine, doesn't make it so.

So stop crying because someone may say something negative about this game. I have been here since the beginning, I know the value of money. I know how budgets work, how costs are allocated. The reason game companies, like SE do things like this, and do not update prices because the majority of gamers are idiots, well, the majority of the younger generation are I guess. They have this warped idea that we own the corporations and we should be proud to buy their products. But, that is not how the real world works, they have to work for our money, and the greed kicks in when they know they can get away with it. They know when they can get away with it, when they realize their customer base is complacent.

SE want the price to be $12 95 a month then that them. you dont move into a $900 a month house with papers signed etc then 5 month later complaining about the rent to high but nothing changed. move out if it over priced lol
