If you make a game that you think won't sell enough to achieve the sort of profit you are aiming for, why make the game? It should be enough that millions of people by the game for what? 60 bucks? So greedy and unnecessary. Hope Free to play is a possible future and if not, I'll just be waiting for TES VI. Pay to Play games constantly evolve. Just like when DLC for games comes out and we typically have to pay for it, big online games like WoW and soon to be ES:O will be expanding on a nearly daily basis, and requires a stream of money to make profits and to keep the updates coming so frequently. If you're not into supporting worlds that are alive and adapting around you even when you're not playing, then that is fine. But the concept is extremely sound, and that is why games like WoW have the largest gaming fan-bases out there. yeah but 14$ is greedy and uncessary im pretty sure just 5$ could work considering a BILLION people will play the damn thing. It's cheaper or equal to almost everyone else. WoW used to be 30 USD a month until only recently, and now it's 15 USD. EVE Online is 15 USD. Tera is 15 USD. SW:TOR is 15 USD a month. I can keep going. WoW has been 15/month since release ... I've been playing since release. Afraid you're wrong there. When vanilla WoW was released, it was 30 USD a month here in the States, and didn't drop down to 15 until shortly before the BC DLC was released. Hell, I still have the e-mail receipts, as I have an e-mail specifically for Blizzard/BNet that I've been using since WCII was first released.
