why is this game free

I read somewhere that it took a lot of money to create this game so why is it free? Will they charge for items/skills? Will they charge later? Is there an ulterior motive, or did someone just decide to give something away

    They uses Ads, and the item shop system, both of which can make enough money.







    As far as I know, they don't charge for skill, but items...  Last I checked, the item shop for 9 Dragons have some clothes, increase xp gain for x amount of time, and ... I think that's about it.  (I'll know if I log on into the game, but I'm not on my gaming pc right now).



    As for any "ulterior motive", I doubt it.  Since it is using the same system as it is in Asia (item shop/ads pays for the server and such), it isn't a bad system, just that many doesn't like it.  But it does have a market, and now more and more F2P item-shop MMOs are being ported to the west (US, EU).



    Just try it if you wish to see if the game is good.

    Current MMO: FFXIV:ARR

    Past MMO: Way too many (P2P and F2P)

    basically instead of having hackers and farmers sell stuff for money in this game the company does it, its like rakion, there are certains you can buy in the game with money you've collected but then there are other better stuff you can buy with real money...

    Because otherwise no one will play it.

    Hehe, just kidding. It isn't that bad. But can be improved a lot.

    well liek others have said.. there are ads in game.. plus you can also buy stuff from their mall..

     

     

    You cant actually buy any super weapons or anything... basically you can get XP boots and some super instant heal postions as well as some cool looking suits :)

     

    so really the main thing you get from it is the xp boost.. and considering this can be quite a long grind it can be worth picking up some coins now and then :)

    What the heck, do you have to complain about a free game. Free is good, pay is bad
