    Default PSO2 Free to Play?

    Hey everyone. I know it's still early to tell, (and I haven't really read much into it) but will PSO2 be Free to Play or pay by month like the old games were? If anyone has information on this, that would be great n_n

    I'd rather it be P2P(monthly fee) instead of a F2P with cash shop dependency. it depends on the monthly fee though.

    I don't think there's official word, but I'm betting (and hopeing) it will be a (small) monthly fee. There will most likely be some equivalent of PSU's Guardians Cash, though (e.g. cash shop), regardless.

    Subscription based online games are notoriously difficult to sustain. Everyone tried it in the wake of WoW's success, and there were far more failures than successes. The best approach would either be free-to-play with microtransactions, which I find unlikely, or a Guild Wars model where access is free, but there are significant content updates that players must purchase.

    I pray for them going the Guild Wars route... no fee to play online, but have great Expansion pack releases that you can buy like with Guild Wars.
    I wish every PSO-World member playing PSO2 would have this outlook/attitude:
    "I'll be honest: I'm a man of simple pleasures, and as long as I get to stab the blazes out of something, I'm pretty content."
    Tactlessness is ugly, willfull ignorance and bigotry is even uglier

    I agree 100% with you. I really hope they keep it at that instead of F2P so everyone can just buy their gear D: It defeats the purpose of the game :<
