I'll wait for the game until it become super cheap as well and probably F2P

Not interested in game with monthly subscription. There are already a lot of subscription that need to be settle every month, namely electrical bill, unifi, water. Gaming also need subsciption? No way. That is why until now I still haven't pick up FF Reborn.

Bought Double Dragon Neon and Strider this morning. Both are my favorite old time classic.

usually around 1 and a half year later when playerbase gets below 1 million if the game kinda fails.
But i still have high hopes for Zenimax studios, just that they went too greedy with the imperial edition fiasco.

Paying for server is such an archaic system that should be dead by now, considering we arent paying for monthy usage for Steam servers, Appstore and Play Store.

I do not play MMOs because they need you to dedicate a lot of time to it and also the ridiculous amount of money i need to pay monthly.

Agreed wholeheartedly. We have already paid for the game, there are no reasons for us to keep on paying them for rest of the game time. This is plain ridiculous.

advertising, you're free from advertisement with monthly subscription-based game
expansion, new expansion every 3 months ( most of the subscription-based games )
microtransaction, pretty self-explanatory
server, yes, steam is free, but it sells game, and by selling a game, it got covered up, likewise to appstore and playstore



personally, i don't mind paying for games if it is worthy to play, since it's only 15-20 usd

Expansion can be handle by DLC perfectly well and it won't force you to unless you are wiling to pay. Same for micro-trans. The prime example is Path of Exile which carried this out perfectly well and it is free to start off.

If only the main game is free then subscription based games can be justifiable to certain extend. Not like FF Reborn or Elder Scroll online which they already cost you a lot to purchase and yet the subscription applied.

Actually I won't say "ridiculous", it just that it a bit hard to attract gamer compare to few years back, but if the game is enjoying especially mmo and most of your friends are playing I don't mind paying monthly fee for it and usually play for few months or even more than a year

Age of Conan is my favorite mmo and been playing it for many months until they remove the monthly subscription and come out an "item shop" sweat.gif

The main problem is not about money, $15 is nothing compared to the time you'll waste in the game as MMO are designed to play long term and I am not interested in sticking to a game for a long time.

It just feels like most game companies are insecure to the point that they want to force players to play their games for thousands of hours.

No thanks, and I prefer smaller games that can be finished in a few hours.

F2P no one wants to play.. and avoid them at all cost.
Monthly also people don't wanna play.. Gamers this days hard to please.
Complain complain.
