It's a bold move to charge now for an essentially "old game" that get's completely replaced in about a years time. Can people really enjoy this game now with the information and screen shots we just received?
In addition we don't even know if this game ever reaches the 2.0 Stage. There is no guarantee that SE will ever release it. 2013 for the PS3 release is pretty late in the consoles life cycle, we might see new consoles by then.
I doubt more than 50% will stay with a full price subscription. The game just barely hangs on to it's current customer base because it is free. Looking at it from Squares point of view, 50% is better than nothing i guess.
I am myself still subscribed to FFXI and not going to change that. If there is a package deal for FFXI+FFXIV that is reasonable (Euro 20 a month), maybe.
Right now i am just not enjoying the game enough to be willing to pay full price. It's simply too frustrating in so many aspects, especially combat.
Until something dramatically changes, i will not subscribe and stay with FFXI, it's still going very strong and has so much content it'll last me for more than a year easy.
I really hope they lower the subscription cost for the game in its current state. I'll pay for it at half its cost until its full reboot next year, but otherwise no, I don't think this game is worth shelling out $12/month for. Not now.
i might pay but for unfinished game i wont pay 12$.
and why they want us to pay now then free trial again in 2012 then start paying again?
agreed i would personally feel more comfortable with $6.00 a month till we have a full game. By paying a minimal price like that ($6.00) the community that stays is stating hey we want to help in paying u guys to make this game great, and SE would be saying hey customers we still have half a game here is a break on the monthly fee.
We'd be paying for being able to play what's essentially a prequel... People who start the game later won't be able to play the content we have access to.
Personally I think that's pretty awesome.
