People sure are clueless to how F2P works aren't they?
You either live as a second class citizen with few perks, unable to compete in top tier gameplay and often gated from content if you want to play for free or ...
... you pay on average MORE than $15 a month and for those wanting top level access and top level power curve you HAVE to pay a LOT more than $15 a month.
The model is designed to pull in more money on average than per month billing. It isn't a charity service. The company wants your money and will shape the entire game around forcing you to pay for things monthly billing does not require you to pay. You WILL pay more over a year, you WILL have constant distractions in game pointing you to the cash shop and if you believe otherwise you ARE a complete and total idiot.
F2P model in an sandbox game is the antithesis to virtual world immersion. Yet some dufus company will attempt it.

Originally posted by khameleon I dare say all your posted points are invalid cause Aventurine has clearly stated they are making a NEW game, not fixing Darkfall into 2.0 version as we have thought for a while. There's not much out about the game yet, let's wait and see before we doom this game. I for sure am looking forward to this game; it would definately be a fresh breath in a boring genre. |

Plus f2p in full loot doesn't work because of hacking and exploiting. Not to mention the limitation of 1 character per account that Darkfall has always had would be blown away by everyone just making a dozen free accounts.
F2p sucks and it could never ever work in Darkfall. For anyone that thinks DF should be f2p just go smash your head into the wall for a couple hours then try to come up with another idea, it should be a better one this time. |

I think people wanting F2P they are just cheap and or poor. They cannot justify paying for something and just feel entitled. $15 bucks is not a lot of money. $180 a year is dirt cheap compared to some other hobbies people have that can cost tens of thousands of dollars a year. This is a bargain. $15 was also standard for over 10 years and the price at least has not inflated. People who have lives and have no time complain about the sub fee the most it seems. Even still that is not a lot of money and I bet people can get at least 15 hours of game time a month which is a dollar an hour. Go to an arcade and see how long $15 bucks lasts you. Heck a 2 hour movie for 2 people is more than 15. Maybe if it was like 50 a month to play I could understand but 15 come on. |
