im fairly sure he actually hasnt and is going entirely off his assumptions of how they work/feel to play given he somehow assumed it typically is $60 a month for a subscription
not unlikely but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt cus some mmos really do be like that. plus some people just don't like RPGs in general, which is totally fair. when i first played ffxiv me and my friends were all frustrated by how slow it felt to get to more interesting content, but with the patch dropping today they're actually gonna be compressing the base game a ton.
Speaking Of Which if anyone hasn't tried FFXIV, or if you have but never got into the expansions, starting tomorrow/today (aug 11), the free trial will include the entire base game PLUS the first expansion. Sixty loving Levels of the game, worth at least a month or two of playtime and you get to do it for free. for reference, currently i think the free trial goes to like lv35 or something? which is
maybe halfway through the base game. would highly recommend cus i think ffxiv is genuinely one of the the best mmos out there right now (I havent tried Guild Wars. I havent tried many MMOs. But I Like this one :) )
I play with Old School Runescape membership for free. I can make enough in-game gold in a day to pay for 15 days of membership ($7 value.)
thats dope. i went back to rs3 recently and was pretty disappointed to see the economy is dogstuff, made me want to try out osrs, but startin over without all the baby mode quick-leveling features of rs3 is spooky
