2022-01-13 FYI

People feel like since they're subscribed and dropping money every month, they need to be getting their moneys worth, regardless of if they feel like playing or not.

I wouldn't make the assumption that it's because someone can't afford it, it's not the kindest approach and it's a bit patronizing.

And like everyone else has been saying: Free to play would draw in the most player count. Maybe not all high quality, but more heads means more attention, and more attention means growth.

The quality of Hazeron's multiplayer gameplay is inherently tied to the quality of the playerbase.

I'm not being kind. I am being patronizing. It's a small expense for something frivolous. Can't make room for it? Then don't. It's very simple.

Previously the model included a trial period at a cheaper rate. You get an opportunity to experience the game at a lower cost.

MMOs have a subscription model because they require upkeep due to the nature of the games, maintenance of servers and so on. A one time purchase is more appropriate for an offline game like "Hazeron Starship."

Or do you expect the servers to stay up for free?

Did you not see Haxus mention much, much earlier that he felt that he didn't necessarily require assistance with the upkeep, but that help would be appreciated.

Not saying that he for sure should just make it free to play, but there's an implication there that he could go the route of cheaper subscription, or purely donations. And by the sounds of it, there's a lot of you that would be happy to donate, even if it wasn't sub based. Myself included.
I'm just saying, don't be rude just because you have cash to spend on a video game. You're not special.

But whatever, man. Everyone's got an opinion, and that's mine. Have a good one.
