A wise decision to keep the game subscription-based. FFXIV is the successor of Square's biggest money maker, and one of the most popular MMOs ever, and it would be silly to waste such a big name on a F2P game.

Subscriptions will allow FFXIV to spread it's wings as high as possible, and give MMO fans a much better service than F2P.


Exactly, sure many people will play the game if it is free. But they can't gurantee how many people will actually pay for in-game items. It would be better for them to just have a monthly subscription fee. And yes I do agree paying the fee is usually always better.
