The MMO that can survive through subscriptions is gernerally far superior to the Free to Play MMO's because they actually have enough cash to make decent content updates.ĮSO began as a subscription based MMO, however the developer Zenimax was too stupid to make it a good MMO where you can play all the content with your friends and instead made most of the content solo content which basically defeats the entire purpose of playing an MMO thus it ran out of customers willing to pay them $15 a month and had to go Free to Play.ĭon't get me wrong there are some decent F2P MMO's like Star Trek Online and others.Īnyway enough of that rant.can someone who plays Final Fantasy XIV please post to this thread the cost per month to play it so I can decide if I want to play it. I have been playing subscription based MMO's since the phenomena began way back when Ultima Online began and there were others as well like Meridian 59, etc. So having read this argument/thread I am still not sure what the cost per month is.
#Final fantasy xiv subscription code#
When i tried FF14 i knew it was a sub game and id have to buy the game / heavensward if i wanted to progress further buuuuuut i also used the amazing internet to try find any cheap deals.i basically brought FF14 AAR / Heavensward and a 60 day time card for like £26 which meant i would have 90 days worth of a top game for less than my usual FPS i was always mad on Also buying the game/ gametime/ exp you get given freebies/thank you items.annnnd i used a friends RAF code to get things that would help me level.all for free. GW2 / ESO I purchased before it went f2p and they were great, GW2 was a fantastic game and i still pop back to it now and then.Īlot of these though were rather limiting, and i felt like i was being kind of forced into subbing or buy there premium / elite / fancy pants monthly menberships

Most of these were just about playable as a f2p the worsed was SWTOR / LOTRo / DCUO

Yes you do need to purchase the game, and subscription.but thats the way the cookie crumbles, WoW / Eve online does this too, i was very anti sub and spent the last year trying out lots of buy-2-play / f2p games
