I was going to pay... and then...

I remembered my excitement launch day, with collector's edition in-hand, and then I logged in....

keke, I remember initially being pissed that the std. edition hat was cooler and better than the dorky looking collector's hat (T.T) Never claimed it because of this.

Anyway, this game looked awesome back then, much like these new promised changes look awesome. While I do agree that the current team is doing a much better job of developing and making changes, I don't want to repeat my mistake again.

I'll come back during their trial period after 2.0 releases. Heck, I'd stick around if (as someone mentioned in the poll thread going) they temporarily charged only $6.00 and no extra fees for retainers.

While I wouldn't subscribe at full price, I would happily donate to help the development costs. Subscribing, at least for me, implies this game is ready and it's far from it. Sure they've made tons of improvements... but basic things don't even work. Like recast timers (-.-);;

You never know. Yoshi-P says the game is 50% complete. Maybe they'll only charge 50% of their intended subscription fee.

Come to think of it...

Yoshi-P said the game is 50% complete. SE should only charge 50% of what they were originally planning.

Sad thing is, I'll pay either way. Yeah, I'm a sucker.

I am gonna pay because I want to experience it all the good the bad and the ugly. It will make the appreciation of 2.0 and the revamping all the more sweet.

I was just getting into the game since 1.19 too :( I regret not sticking around after launch, but I dunno about paying to stick around...

that and I've met some cool people in the LS's I'm in

I respect your viewpoint and share in your experiences with the first launch. I will be very pleased if SE decides to make the charge half of what it intends to at PS3 launch.

I stated this in another thread, but I'll state it again here (especially if they do intend to charge us full price). They better appreciate the ones who stayed and paid by giving us special titles (like Elders or something) and gears.

That would be soooo awesome lol. I want to be an elder!

Ooo, titles or vanity gear would be cool!

Now I am imagining all the players from before the relaunch get some black cloaks like the cultists from FF7 around the world getting ready for the reunion. >.>;

How about a specialized Moogle pet?
