Default Paid MMORPG

I have seen some paid MMORPG and do you think its really worth buying these as there are a lot of down points in these.
  1. Low number of players as its paid
  2. Less fun as we pay for it.

You have got a very valid point! Why pay for a game if more people will play free games? I dunno, people just do it!! Haha!

Can't say I agree with your 2 points. Firstly WoW has errr millions of people playing online so I wouldnt say there are less people because you have to pay. 2ndly I think you will find that if you pay for something, you generally value it more. If its free you tend to careless, if you pay for it then it cost you something and you try to get more from it. Anyway even if you dont like the game online just stop paying the fee, they generally offer a 1 month trial period and you can pay per month as you go. MMORPG games can be a damn lot of fun as long as you find one that is to your liking

Haloman, I actually disagree with you! Have you ever played Runescape? That is a really, really addictive game and you have the choice whether or not to go free or go paid. I played in the free world and it was just joyous! I then decided to try out the paid version (members) for a month. I played and played but kept on expecting heaps from members. It wasn't really that different to the free world and my friends kept on begging me to go to the free worlds to play with them. I kept on saying no because I wanted to make the most out of members, you get very selfish when you pay for something! That is why free is best!

I play tons of pay to play MMOs and to be honest I prefer them to free ones in a lot of respects.

There are plenty of players in most subscription based MMOs, and, on the whole, they are better behaved. Sure, you still have some griefers and idiots, but since you're paying to play, there seems to be less of them. In the free games, its so easy to get another account and just start over that people seem more willing to try to cheat or abuse the system.

There are some good free MMOs out there, true, but I do think that the quality of service, and content, in paid MMOs is hard to beat.

If a game requries a paid subscription then i wouldn't bother with it at all, they take your money and they cannot guarantee you will have a good gaming experience, its stupid, i'm glad all my experiences are free, don't pay for online games people
