What are everyone's thoughts on the announcement of a paid subscription to play TESO? Also why they decided to add in a micro-transaction shop? Do you think this the best solution to an up and coming hit MMO or will this hinder their success? 1: I don't mind the idea of a paid subscription, but $15 is a bit much, not a deal breaker in my opinion. 2: ok micro-transactions... Your already making money and will continue to do so with the paid subscriptions. Might as well come out for the iOS. 3: NO, even WoW is slowly becoming f2p Star Wars made this mistake as we'll, and there are plenty more that are already there. Pick either or not both. In the end I'm still going to play, but it's the principle of it. Bethesda needs new marketing consultants, greedy a**h***s lol.

Oh yea. Unless they decided it was a terrible idea, which it was, and got rid of it. Darth Meeb

wow.... yeah thats not going to go over well with people I think, especially since I believe their justification for a subscription fee was so people didn't have to pay for stuff in game with real money.

Right, it pissed off a lot of veteran you tubers, and their viewers.

I get the feeling they'll be changing their payment model around a bit a couple months after release, what they have set up now will most likely alienate a lot of potential players.

Oh yea definitely, it won't take long at that pace to fall below the standards it has already set for itself. It will become F2P before long.
