If given the option to pay, would you?

And you aren't playing Rift because..:?

Because I want to play and enjoy this game.

Also, don't turn this into a hardcore and casual debate because thats not what I meant and I'm sure you're not that stupid.

If your reply is only "why aren't you playing Rift luluzlolol?" I'll take that as acceptance without response to my previous statement.

You can't argue that.

You want a different game? Go play a different game. You like this game? than accept the fact that at some point you WILL have to pay for that character and this game, guildleves and all.

Because it sounds like you want a different game. That you want to enjoy this game isn't relavant. You can enjoy this game at lvl1 the same you can enjoy it at 50. Your playing this game but you want Rift. No amount whining will bring absured amounts of content content to FFXIV in a timely fashion before they start asking for subs. Even FFXI had the release of only several missions every few months.

I don't need to want to enjoy my game. I'm not foolish enough to play one game and expect another.
I enjoy THIS game. I would pay for more of this game.

[Vackashken]

I would pay for more of this game.

I think a lot of people would pay for more of the game. Unfortunately the "more" part isn't here and won't be for some time. State its in now isn't worth a monthly deduction from my bank account.

It's not about playing other games. It's about this game reaching the standards of games that have been recently released or are going to. The game is not there yet - and judging by your post you feel the same way to whether you would like to admit it or not.

As I said a page ago:

I look forward to paying for this game. Unfortunately that is not in the foreseeable future.

This is not something we should be talking about until halfway into August when we have:

- New battle system
- New dungeons for 30 and 50
- New quest hubs
- A roadmap for the future of this game.

I refuse to pay in hopes that the game is going to pick up. Show me that is going to get there and I will gladly give you my money.

You have no basis for your argument except "oh I like this and so should others". Differing opinions and I'm glad I don't have standards that low.

@ Vackashken: You meant pay instead of play. But I agree completely. This game is NOT in any position/condition to be demanding money for its already staggering playerbase.

Don't you understand that paying for this game right now is like a wife that says "He beats me but hes still a good man."?

Not really, I don't feel I've been wronged or "beaten" in any way. I enjoy the game as it is, flaws and all. That being said I understand that it is far from perfect and that there is a lot of room for improvement. I have hope for the game but at the same time I do enjoy it for what it is now. We have been told what their plan is for the immediate future and I am content with that. Honestly FFXIV is one of the only games I've played in the past few weeks. Between classes ending and work I haven't had a lot of free time but when I do, I play FFXIV.
