Here is a quick question.

When did they announce that there would be a Subscription? Answer: They didn't
I can almost guarantee you... if there is no subscription... this will turn out to be the hands down most massive announcement of E3 and this game will sell in truckloads upon truckloads and will be an undeniable hit.

If they want the game to be as big as you say they will HAVE to have a subscription to make a profit on the amount of money they will be spending on servers, patches, etc.

That's just the nature of MMO gaming, there are plenty of F2P MMO's run by companies much smaller than SE.

And they usually aren't as high featured as P2P mmos. I'm assuming you guys want this to be one of the best right?

@Yuyyder There is still no evidence to show that this game will be the game you are describing. Wouldn't that mean it is premature to state if it is the "biggest" announcement of E3? One thing is for sure though, until they prove that it can be as successful as a Single Player final fantasy it isn't anywhere near the "biggest" announcement in terms of sales, and critical acclaim. To think that a Final Fantasy MMO is going to bigger than a traditional game(or should we say 2 traditional games) from the highest selling video game franchise of all time (Mario) is very obscure or "out there" imo at the moment. Now I know all well that it is an opinion on whether something is "big" or not, but to have a divergent view on the matter and say that it is "downplaying" because of that is going too far imo. This is especially when they set the standards as high as something like "biggest".
