Geeksquisite Question of the Day #25: 8/3/09

This question came to me when talking to my friend Jay about the prices of MMOs. We were quite interested in the Chinese fee system.

Question #25: Would you prefer to pay the standard monthly subscription fee or pay per hour for an MMO?

  1. Okay, when you play an MMO you're usually devoting most of your time to it or at least a large chunk of time, so paying by the hour is a little strange. It really depends on the game in the end.
    I paid monthly for Ragnarok because I knew I would be playing for a month, but I was always unsure if I'd continue the next month and for WoW I paid for every 3 months in advance. (I played A LOT of WoW.)

  2. Well I guess it depends on the prices. Its kind of like Xbox Live Gold you can either pay Yearly ($49.99), Monthly ($7.99) or for three months ($19.99). So you could either pay the $49.99 per year or the Monthly (Yearly your paying $95.88) or the Three Months (Yearly your paying $79.96). So back to what I was saying, it depends on what they offer.

  3. I'd actually do it by the hour, I dont get alot of time individually to play all my games. However, like Ricochet says I gotta know the price.

  4. Yeah, if the prices are equal then i'd rather pay per hour...
    if i'm getting a discount by paying per month, and the game is something i'll be playing a lot of, then i'll pay per month.
