hey do any of you guys have any idea how you're gonna pay for the subscription fee and whatnot?
personally I'm dying to play this game but I have no idea how I'm supposed to pay for the subscription fee since I don't have a credit card.

being a MMO freak( [MENTION=7787]sweetstyle[/MENTION] can vouch for that) i got a credit card so im covered on that front..just waiting for my CE to arrive :D

Well, Compared to FF XIV 1.0 it's probably alot better. Did you play that?
yep i did and yes that was a total shit storm! dropped it after 1 month

^it happens with every MMO before release, dont worry we saw it when WOW expansions launch we saw it when D3 launch on GW2 launch and it will go the same way... I would recommend dont get into early access and buy the game at least after a month launch so you may be able to play it when you really want to ...else be ready to wait looooooooong in queue.

That's good news for SE :D

The wait will finally pay off and they can use this FF: XIV profit to go back to making games at their Japan Studio. They killed/halted development on a lot of project at their Japan Studio just to get this new MMO outta the gate.

bro thats a big question and you are over estimating this whole scenario.

MMO's are like golden goose they cant kill it at once but on other hand if they want to keep getting eggs they have to spend money/manpower and their energy to keep it alive...MMO is altogather a different ball game bro.

FF XI is their most profitable FF game ever. That was the main reason they decided to relaunch FF XIV after its initial failure. The director of this game Naoki Yoshida will keep working on FF XIV and its expansions but if the game succeeds in generating revenue, SE can finally concentrate on other projects. Not a lot of man power is required to maintain MMOs. During FF XI, a lot of projects were still getting made. Heck FF XI is still alive and well.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
