Not only is solo easier with FoV, getting around is easier too since the "tabs" you get with it can be spent to instantly send yourself back to your home country.

Too bad the most badass moogle of all time was FFVI's Mog, who could dance and have catastrophic destruction rain down from the heavens.

Anyway, the mage headpiece reward seems more worth it then the body for ACP.

Yes, because graphics are the most important aspect of any video game. amirite?

Seriously, when did you last play FFXI? The more recent installment to the series allows High Lv characters to drop their level down to any level (10+) in order for them to party. They still retain all gear they have equipped (with adjusted stats)and still gain exp, skill points. This works out perfect because now it's easy as hell to get into parties and still manage to progress at a steady pace.

Also, you are not required to party in FFXI in order to gain levels. If you got stuck at Lv.20 then you were obviously doing something wrong.

Termination of right to use the online game because of late fees, not so much. It explicitly states in the user terms that they can terminate you for any reason they want.

 Reply

If you sign up for a month, then cheat your arse off in week two and get banned / suspended for two weeks I don't think you should get two weeks back. You broke the rules, and therefore breached your contract SE have no obligation to compensate you for this.

If I buy a cinema ticket, then get kicked out halfway through for filming it, or harassing other customers or what have you, I would not expect all, or even half my money back.

 Reply

You have all the tools you need to understand that the game is a subscription game, you can't even begin playing it until you have ponied up your card details. It's a bit weak after the fact to say that you didn't read the EULA or whatever, especially when you have to click a button that says that you agree with the agreement.

It's not Square Enix's responsibility to manage your spending habits. The lesson here is Caveat Emptor. Let the buyer beware.

No, LOL @ customers for being whiny little bitches.

i. Licensing of the online games software disguised as a sale;

So, basically, you're not buying the game, you're buying the license to play the game, which is true of ALL GAMES.



ii. Monthly fees ("fees") to play the online games;

True of every MMO. Did those who bought the game not read up on it first?

iii. Penalties for late payment of the fees;

Pay your fees on time then. Stop bitching.



iv. Interest charges for late payment of the fees;

Pay your fees on time then. Stop bitching.

v. Charges while the online game account is suspended;

Why should Square have to lose money, processing your refund, when you did something to disrupt their online community?

vi. Termination of the right to use the online games for late payment of the fees;

Pay your fees on time then. Stop bitching.

vii. User restrictions and conditions related to the online games;

Are you serious? Every form of intellectual property has license restrictions and conditions. How the hell is this a case?



viii. Termination of game data for payment of the fees.

I assume this is supposed to say "late payment of fees," in which case the solution would be to stop bitching, and pay the god damn monthly subscription costs ON TIME.

Jesus people are stupid. It's all just a game isn't it?

Gaming is a luxury and an optional privilege, whether it be online or off. Online, you're using their servers on their time, and you are essentially making a contract with that company that you will pay for those services. Break that contract, and you're out of luck.

 Reply

And I don't think that gaming is a luxury, the way I see it I don't owe anything to the gaming companies, on the contrary they provide a service in return for money just like every other company. Not that I agree with this monthly fee policy anyway, since in my opinion MMOs are the worst thing that happened to gaming in a loooong time.

 Reply

It's the same as your sky subscription. Yes, you buy a sky box, but you also commit to a subscription.

If you pay late you will get a penalty, if you don't pay you will a reduced service.

If you are unable to manage your finances well enough to ensure that you have £13.09 (assuming you have everything listed here: [www.playonline.com]) in your account when you are due to pay then you clearly have bigger issues than needing to rid the world of Pandaemonium.

Gaming is a luxury. Anything that can buy you a week of groceries for the price of a single item is a luxury, just like most current gen tech, barring cell phones and a basic computer with internet access because those have steadily become necessities. Anything fun that isn't essential to daily life is a luxury. They provide you that luxury, and when it's online, you're using their servers, bandwidth, and maintenance/upkeep. You follow their rules.

 Reply

If you have not, in fact, paid late, and truly are someone that has slipped through the cracks, then I'm sorry for you. But if I didn't pay my electric bill in time and they shut of my service, and charged me a fee for reactivation, well, that's in my contract with them, even if it is the fine print. That's their business model. Know what you're dealing with before you deal with it.
