Can you imagine if they did a subscription fee? Holy shit, then every company would follow suit with every game like the season pass bullshit, I'd stop playing games permanently if so :mad:

what? you know this game is an MMO right? it's not unfeasible for it to have a subscription fee and not be warranted.

Yeah, but actually instituting a subscription fee on the console with a major game that tons of people are paying attention to has band wagon starter wrote all over it (no one really bought the FF game that had a subscription fee in the past).

Final Fantasy xi was the most profitable game in the final fantasy franchise... Which is one of the best selling video game franchises in history. The problem with sites like TA tracking it is that they only track games you have achievements in, and you could play ffxi for hundreds of hours without getting an achievement. Case in point, I had 180 hours in the game without a single achievement when I stopped playing. According to TA, I've never played it.

PSU also had a subscription fee, and was also a fairly big release.

So, I mean- the precedent is there for game developers- I think the reason they don't have more games with monthly subscription fees is that it wouldn't sell as many copies in the media they're developing for. Pc gamers, yes they have and will continue to pay monthly fees for games without balking. 360 gamers are different, and they won't... And there are too many games at any given time for the 360 for developers to think someone is going to keep paying for a subscription. So they'd lose maybe 1/2 of their sales from people who don't want to pay every month- then subscribers would trickle down monthly and not make up the sales gap. Unless, like in the case of PSU and ffxi, it's an established franchise that people could conceivably have purchased the console for...

Destiny is not that. It's a questionable game and a new, untested franchise from a studio with an equal amount of fans and haters.

Anyway, that's my guess as to why it's FTP and why even if it wasn't, no games would follow suit.

agreed, and even PC MMO's are going the way of FTP, like Planetside 2, Star Wars, etc. You make more money off microtransactions. and this game will most likely end up like DCUO online, where they release a new dlc every few month's as an expansion for 10-15 dollars each kind of like they do with map packs.
