Actually games before UO had fees, by the hour. People would spend $100+ a month to play some games then when the MMORPGs came about they made monthly fees not hourly. Other crap happened attempting to add more fees if you played over X amount of hours but that never went through so what ever.
It's pretty obvious when a MMORPG is being made, and it's not an Asian Grind fest, it will more then likely have a monthly fee, even some Asian grinders have fees.
I don´t get it.. Why they wont change monthly fees to login times?
For example: 10 dollars would be about 50 logins.
So that gamers that dont have much time to play wouldn´t need to hurry up and try to take those losted playing days when should rest.
So what I am wondering is why? I bet there would be much more gamers if monthly fees would change to login times.
I know there
As fire from hell raises and from sky falls fiery rocks to ground and earthguakes cracks the ground as fires burst to sky as pilars and heavy metal plays.
well if you want $10 for say 50 logins... what if your computer keeps dying so you keep logging in, thus waisting money on logins? what if you log in once and never log out cuz your computers so good you can just alt tab and do something else never having to worry about payment? a monthly fee is clearly the only way any MMO can make cash besides ads
Maybe, I didn´t think that as wide as that... Damn.. It looked like a great idea.

qfe. everywhere i see posts like "is this game free"? or "where can i download the client"? generally speaking if a game has good grfx. or
a deep playstyle beyond grinding the same mob for 60 levels then they have to obtain money for updates, maintainence, expansions, etc.
any game that supports through a item shop i have found to have the worst (if any) community and the lack of content will bore you to tears.
anyone can drum up $14.99 a month for a quality mmo experience.
Yeah thats true. A 12 year old doesn't think that way. XD Monthly fees almost assure you that your community will not be run by kiddies. This game doesn't look like kids should be playing it anyways.
If theres 12 year-olds running around within Fallen Earth, we will need to talk to their parents about what they let their kids do during the day... shows how good our next generation will be
But yea, $15.00 USD a month (if i were to guess for this MMO) isnt really that bad. i mean the graphics look like their worth it, especially after all the time the developers have put into this MMO. i might be willing to pay 20 a month for it... but dont tell the devs that so it doesnt go that high

Agreed. So far, it's the only game I'd break the $15.00 standard for.

Fees really started in earnest with UO and became entrenched with EQ1.
So, really, the pricing model is 'EQ1 - Clone'.
And yes, it is likely that any MMORPG that does not SHOUT Free-To-Play (Like Guild Wars did), will be Pay-To-Play in the $15 a month range.
