Full translation of Yoshi interview, including his openness to F2P

I could see them adding a system similar to other MMOs where you can exchange in-game currency for 30 days of playtime.

While that is possible since there isn't really much of anything to spend gil on currently, I somehow doubt it as in this circumstance they can actually LOSE money from subscriptions. Games like EVE Online are kinda unique in that endeavor.

It would also defeat the whole purpose of the Steam launch. You can actually use your Steam Wallet to pay for your monthly subscription. I add funds to my wallet using PayPal, which is directly connected to my bank account so a credit card isn't required at all. it's quite nice.
