When I eat out, yeah. And true, it doesn't always mean more content, and COD is abysmal, but this is TES we're talking about here. Though it's not Bethesda, but Zenimax, I think that we can still expect great content like we have gotten for ever TES game, and I think it will be fairly frequent. With the past titles, we have gotten great content, some of it for free, and the parts that weren't free were fairly cheap. They definitely didn't get the equivalent of $15 a month per player for all of the add-ons they came out with, and they still did great.

Not to mention that subscription based games generally have a better player base. That's been my experience with the countless MMOs I have played over the years. The f2p ones still would have some good players, but a huge majority of them were terrible; I don't mean skillwise, I mean just in general. Awful people. The subscription based ones usually had a majority of great people playing.

Now I've got to go vent my frustration at the mention of Call of Duty, lol.
