and why do all these new MMO's fall to dust or go F2P (Rift and Aion for example), simple, they did'nt have the fan base to support them from the start. games like WoW and FF have a big loyal fan base to support them. I have been playing FF games now for around 20 years give or take a few months and i am not about to stop because of a monthly charge i hardly noticed going out of my bank account.

You make some fair points but you wont change my mind. and hey if XIV go's F2P i wont stop playing either.

my point is i don't care if i pay or not but i am more than happy to pay as i enjoy the game
