Token System/Subscription

These threads show how bad people are at math and economics. Every monthly token must be purchased by someone from SE. No one is getting a free ride. The only difference would be that more people could play the game and SE would make more money because people would buy tokens and trade them to people who can't pay monthly but can barter for tokens.

What does number of character have to do with anything? You not charged for extra characters unless you talking about the entry level sub vs standard sub which still doesn't matter cause I would assume it would work the same way as time cards do. As for the rest as said before I would assume it would work the same way as time cards. It would cover your base sub not including extras and well if you were legacy you either could choose this option and pay a higher price (like existing time cards) or leave you account unchanged and continue to pay how you already are doing. So you saying it won't work is not true, would just simply be another version of a time card.

No....this is not a pay to win game.

No thanks, I argued this before and that's just a pay to win system. You are paying money to cheat your way through farming/doing content. As I said in http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post2813018

You are skipping parts of the game that otherwise would have to be done through either grinding, farming, or just patience from duties. Selling PLEX cards to buy a house, selling PLEX cards to buy materia for a max meld, selling PLEX cards for even paying people to do a Coil run or give them a pony (I saw a gold buyer do this) is pay 2 win, regardless if it isn't BIS or the top of the line.
