They hosed up not going F2P and they haven't made a profit yet. It came out June 9th 2014 and it will end in march 2015. I think we had a pool going somewhere. http://www.pcgamer.com/the-elder-scrolls-online-drops-subscription/ The game is still like 60 bucks or 20 bucks or something and an mmo so it is loving dumb

if the game was pc only it would have gone free to play I think they realized you can't ask people for $60 + $15/month + $5/month on console

they should've just made it F2P on PC and then if you want to play it on a console you gotta buy it but they give you $60 worth of F2P currency to make up for it

Oh yeah. That dude. I thought his thread was a joke or something but honestly it was extremely weird and creepy. IIRC it was posted when the forum was still DDRD, so that makes sense.
