Scared about ARR

[Twiddle]

Exn: you correct, something i have noted in not one, not two but ALL free to play games is that the community is divided in to two different camps. The people who pay, and pay more then a monthly sub would normally cost for stuff that should be included in the base. And the people who don't pay at all, who are to such a large extent penalized that they don't stay around long. Way i see it GW2 was a pure rip off, why? Because, even after you spend the 69.99 on your copy, and start playing you quickly realize that unless you keep burning money and the total ends up way over 14.99 a month... you see that you can't honestly keep up with the game speed. At cap unless you are bleeding your credit card like a pig. You can't even afford repairs, at cap the difference between people who pay ~50$ a month and those who choose not to is to the level like we are playing 2 different games.

This is the reason i prefer a p2p game with a monthly sub, we all get the same base and a persons pay at the end of the month does not influence the enjoyment of the game. Were i will give a penalty to p2p games is that they all seem hell bent on 14.99 a month. And yes some people to feel that's steep, and yet i see no MMO p2p braking out of that mold..

I bought Gw2 to play the beta pre order thing but never took to it. When you posted this I had to look into it since I hadn't done anything really in Gw2. The pricing is crazy! The best armor in the game you have to spend almost $600 us to buy enough game gold to get it. Thats ridiculous... *tosses her unplayed gw2 in the trash before she actually has a care to play it*

I'll gladly fork over $14.99/mo for quality entertainment. When it keeps me entertained to the point where I want to log in several times a week, for a few hours each time, the cost per hour is way cheaper than say netflix.
