Stop Making Should-Be Achievement Gear.."Optional Gear"

I really don't think you should be comparing Wildstar to FFXIV here. FFXIV has proven itself to be much more successful. Why would you want a successful MMO to emulate a comparatively unsuccessful one?

I actually really like Wildstar's f2p model and wish more f2p games would emulate it. Guild Wars 2 is another one that I think is pretty decent.

That said, the only other game I've played that does quarterly content updates is WoW, and go figure, it also follows the sub+optional microtransaction store model. I DO think there's correlation between this particular model and frequent content updates, yeah, no matter how much everyone wants to cry about "our sub money being used to fund KH3".
