Compensation for the early Sub fee

[Seirra_Lanzce]

i find it sad, because you are given an option to either;

A) Pay when the times come, because at that time (after 1.20 patch), Yoshi say is the time when the game is at a level that can be charge. (Patch 1.20 is the determine patch to see the game is worth to play or not)

B) Pay whenever you want, be it on 1.21, 1.22 or at 1.23, as you see fit.

C) You can opt to wait for 2.0.

The thing is, people want more, and giving more to it is not to say a bad idea, is the worse idea actually, giving the mentality of the people, giving more will end result of wanting more. Is a very very bad mentality of people, even i too have this. But let's not joke our self here. MMORPG is not just a game, is a business, and to create such a content without any income and not wanting to add cash shop, is ridiculously impossible to survive.

To say is money grabbing demon is unfair and certainly idiot who thinks money growing out from tree or selfish people. The game was not worth to pay from launch, they given us compensation of freeplay for 1 year, keeping our data, and still play on their service without being charge for a single cent for a year when they could charge us for like $1 or $2 for just playing on the server ya know, but because of the bad launch, they give us free 2 play until the game is worth to be played.

Patch 1.19 is it worth to pay to play for me? No it is not worth to pay as of this moment, but 1.20 is where i'll start thinking where should i continue to play or not? Is the content there ready for me to think it is worth or not?

People can talk bad about anything but they forgot one thing about MMO, it doesn't have a real standard to begin with, back in when WoW was launch they dont have those fancy stuff as well, the talents and those stuff are not in it yet, but people still pay, so why? Is because people are just people, mean, greedy and absurdly mentality people, including me, but why am i agreeing to pay it? because my understanding and the game worth that is coming after 1.20 that lock me believe that the game is indeed ready to be pay to play.

If you're making threads like this OP, and claiming that the game is "unfinished" I sincerely hope you have another character besides the one in your profile and you've actually experienced, at least a little bit, everything the game has to offer. Otherwise I'm not really sure how you can back up your claim, besides conforming to what some other people are saying and acting like you actually developed your own opinion based purely on that.

[Seirra_Lanzce]

A more serious note of people is that they sure love to stated what they say are right and other people are wrong.

Like in this situation about the game being unfinish or what not, not worthy to reinstated the subscription bill, people need to know that is by right of everyone choice to either pay or not pay. People should not offend one another because their choice is in conflict with yours and people should not even replied back because it will just cause a commotion and that is what they wanted, and that is what we call a flame bait.

funny i thought same thing when first 10 people attacked the OP

The first 10 people include you as well, though I don't see anyone attacking anybody aside the usual type of posts you generally ignore anyway. (How does one 'shut up' on a forum when words aren't spoken?)

[TheVedis]

you mention exclusives

we are getting exclusives

there will be events and things happening pre 2.0 that wont be available after

also, compensation for the free year of play you already have gotten?


god you people are greedy

Or we could pay and get a good game in a year..... just pay or leave I really cant take these anti subscription topics anymore.

People feel like they shouldn't have to pay for an unfinished game that's all there is to it. SE on the other hand doesn't seem to have raised their standards at all if this is the game they deem good enough to charge for. I'll vote with my wallet and hope the future updates will be a lot bigger than the small stat-tweaks so far.

@ OP, dude you are nuts. Good concept that paying full price for an unfinished project leaves something to be desired but then you went all Ann Coulter on us. Surveillance? That's crossing the line, obviously, not to mention don't you think there are things that happen in their office that they don't want to show their competitors? And also spoilers? Put your brain to better use and think up another way to address the dilemma.

This is some good sense right here folks. Everyone take a moment to soak that in.

Let's not forget that they raked in about $40 million dollars from selling game copies, so it's not like this team has never made any money off FFXIV. Also a certain percentage of players bought crysta in advance.

seems in this topic only the people with 50s want to pay for this unfinished garbage, I'd rather go back to Rift then pay for this monthly and I've been here since launch and bought the collector's edition.
