    Just how CHEAP your Sub really is.

    Just felt like making a post about this because I really don't understand how a subscription is a deterrent for some people when you like the game.

    Assuming you're paying the highest price of 14.99 a month. That's 49 cents a day, or 2 cents an hour.

    Yet these same people will drop $60 for a game that is over in 6 hours.

    Eating fastfood twice a month is more expensive.

    Or once.
    A Burger King Whopper Meal is almost like 8 dollars...almost 10?
    Or I think MCdonalds...Well eating out at a fast food restaurant for 2 is expensive for just that single meal.
    I hate when people moan and groan over sub fee's.

    I dunno...get a job? Do random work for neighbors?

    If you are Legacy for 6 months it's 47 bucks. For the Normal person paying for this game it's 74.99 i think it is for 6 months.

    My rule of thumb when buying a game is to get at least one hour of enjoyment per dollar spent. This means currently most games worth 60 dollars aren't worth the price tag. Going by this logic FF14 is definitely worth it as I get over 15 hours of enjoyment per month. It also means minecraft is a steal for it's cost and games like Skyrim are VERY worth it as well.

    Yes, this is also my philosophy as well. $60+tax for a game that you can beat within less than 20 hours is just not worth it. Sure, 10-20 hrs might be alot for other genres, but since I'm an RPGamer 10-20 hrs is nothing; heck, thats usually when the story picks up for me.

    This is my 1st mmorpg and I am liking it thusfar and will continue to subscribe until I don't feel like it anymore.

    I will admit that $15/ month is a bit much. That can buy a game or a subscription to a game rental company.

    It is worth the price since I haven't even finished the main story

    I paid in almost 1000 dollars for wow, granted its not like car/medical/house insurance, but it does add up.

    Also these threads make me sick.

    I always prefer MMOs with a sub over F2P with a cash shop. Nothing turns me off of an MMO faster than hearing it has a cash shop full of p2w.

    Agreed. I think the sub is worth knowing that the devs don't condone or support pay2win.
