    They won't as long as people are happy with paying both the sub and the cash shop things. And, from the looks of it, there's many that do (even if I still don't understand it, but whatever). More moneyz for them.

    So, I hope that everyone enjoys this double dipping, because it's not going to change - if anything, it will get worse. We warned you when they introduced the extra retainers...

    Its true though, tons of people will post here bitching, but the moment they can click "buy", they'll do it.

    Is it any wonder most games today ship with microtransactions of some sort? EA is targeting to make $1 Billion for DLC.... so dont you think for one second SE isnt going to try and make a cash grab as best they can too. And this is only the beginning of it.....

    that happened in absolutely every other MMO that went down this road.....I'd call it "an educated guess" more than a plain assumption

    Really hope not going to Archeage route... that MMO has been discriminating between F2P players and P2P players really sad.

    They're good guesses and may end up happening if SE follows the trends of other MMOs.

    Another guess: SE may start to purposely make all dropped/tome/endgame/crafting gear extremely ugly and only release good looking gear in the cash shop. Then they'll put a bunch of the good looking gear in a gambling box so you only have a random chance of getting them. Also the gambling boxes only give you one piece of a gear set at a time. This happens in SW:TOR so it's not a far fetched idea. lol

    nope...but then again we arent talking about any game, and also all those games that have em are F2P..WoW only did it just recently, and heck they even had a somewhat decent reason to give that lvl90 item..we are talking about FFXIV:ARR


    look:

    Until they actually do it, ill keep telling you they might not do it
    If they do it, ill stop paying a sub and move on


    its as simple as that

    Don't bother, they are in denial. All the major games have gone just like this. This is one of the very few last sub games, and the media has repeatedly asked when the game would move to this model.

    Now it is actually happening, and some people want to still pretend that it could never happen here.

    The forum goers are composed largely of hardcore/casual/middle ground mmorpgers who have probably been around since the the UO days. I would not discredit what is being said so quickly. You might take what is being said as nonsensical babbling of troubled minds, but perhaps they see not just the trees but the entire forest said trees occupy. There have been many "assumptions" made in the past that came true here. I can't say I blame them for being so upset. If you've seen the same situation occure again and again.. One that had a negative impact on something you supported time and again you would eventually develope an awareness that some stuff may or may not end up happening again.. All likelihood pointing toward the former.
