what is your point exactly? that they should only charge enough to cover their costs?
that's pretty handicapped if you're saying that
Crystalwarrior:
The problem with subscription-based MMO's is that if you run out of your precious money and can't pay for the next month of the game, you simply stop playing.
You are basically paying 180 bucks or so for a year of playing this game, even though there's tons of games which you pay from 10 to 60 bucks and it's yours forever, and some of those games can be played for more than a year (Blockland for example).
But when you add a microtransaction store to the subscription-based model, it's an obvious sign of massive cashgrab. Dunno if that microtransaction store is confirmed tho.
Mura:
I got a bad feeling this game sucks and is just going to feed off all the skyrim fanboys. Similar to what warz did with dayz (except this is under the same ip) if you really want a good non sub based mmo just get gw2. Its by far the best

Lol sounds a lot like a personal problem. Get a job or ask your parents to pay for it for like, a birthday or Christmas present.
