In the Online Gaming World, there are 2 types of MMORPGs, F2P( Free to Play) and P2P (Pay to Play).
Free to play MMOs have an Item Mall, where you can buy different items to improve your character or the game's gameplay itself. Free to play MMOs tend to attract a lot of people, why?
First off, it's free...but is it really? In my opinion you tend to spend more in these kind of MMOs than in P2P ones. Time and time again you have to buy items in the item mall to maintain your character's status. Second, rich kids looooove these kind of MMOs because it's easy to gain an advantage...hence the saying, "Rich kids finish first." Yes, you don't have to budget your money so you'll be able to pay monthly in order to play the game you want, but what you don't see is that the gaming companies push you to spend more without even noticing it. It's like buying computer parts one by one, rather than buying the whole computer with everything you need in it. F2P gaming communities also turn me off, since it's free everybody will be able to play it, EVERYBODY. Like people who play just to tick you off or those who simply has nothing better to do with their lives. F2P games also attract a lot of bad gamers like the ones who cheat their way through Botting or Hacking. A game is only as good as it's community, otherwise, it will just waste the developers' effort and the dedicated players' time.
Pay to play MMOs are more exclusive and balanced. I prefer these kind of MMOs because they make my gaming experience worth it. It's disappointing that there are only a few P2P MMOs existing nowadays, because gaming companies prefer money over their loyal players they either change the game to F2P or release it that way. Paying monthly can be a hassle but it actually saves you more money. Hacks, cheats, or any other 3rd Party Programs rarely exist in P2P MMOs, if you're paying for it monthly why would you ruin the game, right? I also prefer their community, people are very friendly, approachable and they treat you with respect.
This is just my point of view...
How about you, which do you prefer?
