People are like ooh this game is free! ill play that!

then they play for free for a while, then they get tempted by the stuff you can buy, and then they end up paying a lot more than the monthly fee for a subscription based game.

Companies don't switch to free to play because they want to make people happy, it's just a draw-in, like King Vinegaroon, then they get you to buy stuff you kept telling yourself you werent' going to buy.

I'll take the set it and forget it nature of a subscription. I don't want to be teased and tempted by a pay-for-power cash shop.
