    Where do people keep hearing about this F2P? if it's not from SE news or have some sort of proof to post stop posting. It's a useless to believe it without actual proof. If someone is trolling SE I'm sure they would to see the proof as well.

    Yoshi said that "if players want the game to go F2P, he would think about it" because some dude asked that question. That doesn't mean the game is going F2P nor that the players have been requesting it. Yet people doesn't seem to understand and spread that shit all over Internet. It's not even a possibility. Stop spreading that BS already pls

    To be young and naive, can you tell where the link or the date of the broadcast for that?

    I remember seeing that on youtube earlier this month. As for when.. It was definitely before we got the 4.10 patch. But I do remember that Yoshi NEVER even said that it was a possibility. Just that if the playerbase were requesting it, they would "think about it". That's it. No possibility or nothing. And those youtubers are spreading that hoax too -_-

    No.

    He said IF 80-90% want it F2P then they would consider it.

    At no point did he ever say that that many actually want it to go F2P.

    Can I ask why people are so against having a "f2P" label, when right now, we have "f2p" model gated behind a sub?

    Secondly, can we all stop calling it rumors and fake news? If our dear Yoshi said in a legit interview it a high possiblty it can happen, granted they get 80+ % of the base. Problem is in the bottomline money.

    Square Enix is a company (yeah i know shocker) and if they see a trend where they can make much more money on micro trans, then they obviously going to consider it more serious than making 10M USD (a number i've seen somewhere, maybe not accurate) every month on the concurrent subs they have now. No they don't have 10M active subs.

    I was actually listening to the Podcast this morning. Was one of those moments where you don't want to admit it but there were some really good points made as a whole.
