They got money when we bought the game.

Looking at the plans for the patches coming up to when they go P2P and the one after when they introduce jobs, the game will be where it should have been at release, in my opinion. So you wont be paying for an extended 'beta' but a release game. Whether you enjoy said game is your choice. Me personally ill wait till the job system to sub to XIV. But after that ill gladly pay a monthly sub for the game.
Just look back at mmos released over the year, and what they were like at release. Some had a bit more content, some had less or about the same, and ALL had their fair share of problems.
