STOP Playing FREE to PLAY Games
I am a old MMO Players , EverQuest , Dark Age of Camelot , OLD MMO
I am used to pay my SUB every month and after spending 40 hour + in a game I find it convenient to give them 15$ monthly. 15$ is not even a restaurant....
I AM SICK BORED OF SEEING GOOD GAMES AWESOME GAMES GET BORING BECAUSE OF F2P
Free to play games aren't FREE
NOTHING IS FREE IN LIFE
Reason why All good MMO going with that F2P model is ..... YOU
You download them
You Play them
AVOID free to plays games
AVOID THEM
it's free ?
don't play it
Someday the industry will UNDERSTAND that F2P model isi't good and they will UNDERSTAND
I want a game where it's fun , not where who has the more money.
The Game industry has to understand that F2P aren't fun and they are not.
I Work in the video games industry and the question you keep asking yourself in a daily basis is : Is it Fun ?
Maybe it's expected ,
Maybe it's realism .
Maybe it's because of ....
IF it's not FUN it shouldn't be in a GAME. Realism-ism or whatever , Not fun , don't commit it.
You can INVEST 100 hour in a FREE to PLAY games but someone who spend 5 hour and more $ than you is better than you ?
It's NOT FUN
Shouldn't be in the game.
My last Free to Play MMO was Black Dessert Online and I PROMISED MYSELF
Never , Never , and NEVER again I will download or EVEN TRY a game that have a Free to Play Model.
The Game model DOES intervene with the Game itself and it make the game REALLY BORING.
Ever stooped playing a MMO because of DUMP cash shop for instance : Aion
Games is good but.... fucking shop killing me sooooo fuck it
Please for the FUTUR of good MMO , Stop encouraging , stop downloading , stop hyping on F2P Models games , they literately sucks

Not sure if I now want to play them more or less.
EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests
The generality of the MMO's that had subs fell on constant decay forcing them to open up to B2P/F2P, that's not the companies doing, it's the industry reality.
We, MMO players, are generally cheap bastards, it's also that if every mainstream MMO around had a sub, very few of us would be capable to afford to play multiple at one time, so the genre adapts their business models to such.
But the sub model does not, and will not work, the genre would collapse if every mainstream MMO had a sub, it would push people to just choose one or two to play at one time and the fight over the niche audience would be bloody.
Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
so yea, play AS MANY F2P games as you possibly can in order to expedite this whole luck of the draw inevitability

That's all the proof I need to know that FTP games can offer endless free entertainment. Were some things a bit annoying without paying? Kind of.. in some games. This is a progression genre though. Everything you do is about progression. If I plan on playing a game without spending I just consider working around the cash shop as a type of progression.
They are not for me.
A game Model should not Intervene with the FUN of the game and for me it does.
It does when I beat my ASS 60 hour a week in a MMO and getting ALL I've accomplish into a lost BECAUSE someone decided to spend 1000$ Us in the game and he got to the point That I am. It seriously , KILL ALL MY FUN.
FREE To Play MMO are for Casual players that plays 4-5 hour a week into a game not for an hardcore gamer.
I AM SO HAPPY that Pantheon Rise of the Fallen will be a SUB game.
Because they work in a game with ALL THEIR HEART , and they KNOW that F2P model MMo are a BIG and BORING JOKE.
Sub model dosen;t work ? What about WoW ?
What about Netflix ? nobody watch netflix ?
What about your dam cellphone ?
I mean SUB does work , and still the best option/best games
Free to plays games aren't design to be fun ... You are just BLIND and if you don't see it it's only because they did a good job. Their design is to have a free game that look great and appealing , then their design is made to make you pay in a way.
Games need moneys , I know it , I need a living....
But games are made to be fun .... and it break the 1st rule of being a good game.
In Black Dessert Online , Boss that 1 shot you , Top Tier loot on top DPS , Top DPS only those that PoP CashHop Pearl , all this , was ALL DESIGN to be $$$. It wasn't Design to be fun , but they designed it to be $$$.
In Aion , % drop of stuff is so lame it was design that way so you can reach the cashshop.
I mean...... All games , somewhere in the Free to Play Model , have a DESIGN issue .
The issue is , this is made to make you pay.
Who like paying ?
paying not fun !
not fun == don't commit in the game
In EverQuest , When they designed AoW boss or Velketor zone , It was meant to be challenging/Rewaring and fun. $$$ had nothing to do there. You pay your 12$ montly like everyone , and the game is good.
The game model dosen't intervene in the game fun of any players , it just can't.
I personally don't get doing that so it works for me because I only play one at a time... /shrug.

How can you play Various MMO ?
Do you sleep ?
p2p models isn't that much different either, people that work alot can STILL buy gold and doesn't matter of it's illegal because the company either doesn't notice or care about the situation. i've had many online friends that work all day but have people level / raid for them.
black desert online will end up getting boring for you even if it was p2p, there is like absolutely no reason to play that game other than grinding mindlessly or doing the same life skill, blame the greedy companies like pearl abyss / nexon / ncsoft for ruining the games and ignoring the community completely instead of the f2p model itself.
path of exile, warframe are free but they aren't that p2w compared to the mmorpgs, and that is one of the main reasons why i love these two games but a little p2w doesn't bother me at all unless it's as ridiculous as archeage. in the end the p2w player is paying to lose because you will eventually catch up to their power level unless it's heavily p2w or the guy is pouring half of a million dollars on ONE generic mmo (which would make him a laughing stock, it's sad someone would waste that much money on a game instead of saving for a house..)
