Lifetime Subscription

[Pseudopsia]

^^ Pretty sure that Square Enix is very serious about ARR. You see how many MMOs went F2P because the developers gave up about the amount of the subscription. Indeed, they wanted more players.

FFXI is still low but Square Enix is strongly supporting it no matter how little money they are making. lol

Final Fantasy is too good for them to give up.

I'm sure SE is serious, however others do not have the insight we do. I like there be some protection to the consumers for a lifetime subscription. Not everyone is that smart to be able to judge if a lifetime subscription will be a good purchase before playing the game.

Here's an idea: To be eligible to a lifetime subscription a player has to be paying for any type of subscription for 3 months. After 3 months the player can upgrade to lifetime subscription. The cost of 3 months is subtracted from the lifetime subscription price and the player pays the difference.
