--- Quote from: Headcrab Zombie on August 27, 2013, 08:12:14 AM ---I know a lot of people who say they don't want to pay $15/month for a sub-based game, but then play microtransaction-based games and spend way more than $15/month --- End quote --- There's a reason for that though, they aren't forced. See if I don't have the money to spend I'm completely safe in a free to play game. I've spent probably $60 in costumes in one game, I'm fine with that, but I am not too sure if I'd be able to keep up $15 a month. It's not that much but there are many times I don't have money left over for things like games. |

As I said earlier, most micotransation games (at least all the ones I've played) are extremely play to win, and you do have to spend a ton of many to have any chance of competing against those who do I understand your point though; if you don't have a job you're not always able to consistently come up with $15 every month, I used to be stuck in f2p games. But now that I have an income, I don't like playing them |

Maybe like $15 is = 300 in game hours, but then you could still sub for $20 which has unlimited hours. But the hours never expire. I think that'd be reasonably priced considering unless you're just no lifing the game it'd be difficult to reach that point in a month, it'd also allow people who can't afford $15 every month to actually plan accordingly. Edit: I think this would be the best payment model for an mmo. $7: 100 In Game Hours (Never Expire) $15: 300 In Game Hours (Never Expire) $20: Unlimited Hours (Monthly fee) |

People who pay for Xbox Live or Playstation Network won't want to pay monthly for this MMO. |
