I wish people would just give up this dream of free to play. There are plenty of free to play games out there. If you can't afford $15.00 a month you probably shouldn't be playing an MMO anyways.

For ppl who REALLY wants a F2P game. Just play a F2P game. Nobody is forcing u to play the game.
F2P? {No thanks}
The thing I don't like about Free-to-play is that they pretty much all degenerate into Pay-to-win. After all, the game needs to make money somehow, and it's not going to make money selling pure aesthetics, even in this crowd (which I believe places greater value on aesthetics than most).
Thanks, but I'd rather pay $15/month for the freedom to enjoy the same benefits as everyone else in the club.
Not just for you, but for the handful of people that share this fear:
Final Fantasy XI.
And that game didn't give a damn about your feelings.
Accessibility? Nope! Tutorials? What's that? Any helpful information? "...w?"
Only have 2 hours a day to play? Enjoy end-game content in about 2 years! (Maybe)
If ARR is anywhere near as good as we think it's going to be, FFXIV is going to be just fine.
Everyone relax.
YES!!! i think they must turn ARR to Free To Play !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, yes, SE just spent the last 2 years and who knows how much money to make a free game for you all! There will be a special snurble hat in the cash shop that you can buy and Camate will get paid a shiny nickel for every one sold. In case you can't tell, yes that was sarcasm.
If you want to play a free game, go play one. This game will be subscription based. Please stop making these redundant, useless threads. I almost don't want to post this for fear that it will help make this thread a "hot topic".
With people saying that the only way FFXIV will survive, is with F2P option. If the game is good, it will reel in people, if not good then it won't reel in people. Honestly tho, how can u be so certain that the game will fail because it's not free to play? Can say the same thing about if it is f2p. How can F2P actually help FFXIV? Rather then saying "Make FFXIV free to play it will help FFXIV survive in the MMO industry," why not wait till the actual game comes out and if you don't like it just stop playing and stop paying.
