Who will keep playing once you need to start paying?

No it'll sort out the simple easily entertained ppl from more imaginative ppl that expect alot more from a ff game then your simple mind can apparently handle.

Or... I see the great potential and willing to pay to make sure the game succeeds?

[lordpyriel]

I wouldnt pay until alot more was added/fixed. I dont see a point in paying when the game lacks in almost every area. With everything going up in cost now a days, I want alot I can do when ever I feel like doing it and not some half assed ill thought out game that doesnt deserve money yet.

ffxiv wont have much until about the end of the year with how slowly the changes are coming and then it wouldnt be worth it cause the year of DOOM and GLOOM would be here...... O_o

I actually enjoy the feeling of watching the game grow from a stumbling infant taking the first steps, to imagining the outcome, will it grow to become a star, capitalize the world market, or get by and make ends meat while enjoying the little things.

I won't pay until they have their re-launch with a completed game that should have been done after all the beta feedback.

The only reason I'm and I assume many other are playing still 1) it's free 2) is to get a jump on everything/one once it's re-launched.

I'll pay for it, as I'm not that much of a picky player. MMo are never finished game and unless the game is turned off it will always be updated. I play a game to have fun, and unlike the OP I don't take the game to seriously.

Lin what you are asking for is years worth of updates happing in the first year of the game, not gonna happen. My suggestion is wait 2 years then all your list will be added.

DCUO has the worst cop/pasyte in the game, very limted "class" sellection.
and not a ton to do, pvp is a chaotic mess as it encourages ganking of lowbies/ newbies. Yet no one is really complaining on the station forum site. If you complain about the game you will get chewed up and spit out.

i'm wonding why dcuo is "good" and ffxiv "bad" when DCUO is in worst shape. SOE droped the ball on a ton of promises. 1 mnthly updates. 2 what already had a plan failur by having a glitch where everyone saw the time exstention for a promo plan.


I'm wondering if its really the game, or just the community.

What does DCUO have to do with FFXIV not being finished properly to the point a whole team was removed and replaced and those new Devs even Admit to this game needing extensive re-work.

If they started charging today? No.

If they start charging after PS3 release? We'll see.

After playing Rift during this downtime, I have realized now more than ever that the way SE handled beta testing and launching this game were both inexcusably bad. Rift may not turn out to be a classic in the long run, but its testing and launch phases were spot on.

[Jagermeister]

i will gladly pay, they're constantly working on improving the game & actively listening to feedback. my money is on this game getting much better, soon.

[kalyke]

If they start charging for this now then yes i would pay.Im currently enjoying Xiv,yes i know it needs more content and tweaks but overall i am happy with the direction 14 is going and so would pay to play.Although its great that its still F2P ^^

[Giant]

I'll pay & play.

I have faith on SE that they'll improve the game. It is getting better and better each patch/update.
