But you cannot compare GW2's PvE to Wildstar's. In GW2 you get another zergfest every 2 weeks which you autoattack through in the first 2 days. Other updates include costumes in the cash shop. I'm not playing Wildstar specifically for costumes and boring combat.

Uh huh. And just how many subscribers did those games have before the conversion? And more importantly, note how none of them had a CREDD-like concept, which effectively makes EVERY player a subscriber. Much different scenario with WildStar. Stop trying to ignore it.

We've already received what we paid for; they don't owe us any more than that. Games go on sale all the time without invalidating the money that previous purchasers spent. At this point they can do whatever they want with their money.

Yep, definitely bookmarking this one for potential future reference.

As was pointed out, what you'd call them doesn't matter. They are considered triple A mmo's.

BS. LotRO had a ton of promotion at release, and both LotRO and DDO are fairly old games, so it's only natural that they don't look as good. The fact is they are Triple A MMO's, unless you have the budget numbers those games had at release and can compare it to what was considered a triple a budget when they were released... You're just making up excuses to ignore facts you don't like.

Even if we do accept your premise, which is massively flawed, because you base it on subjective opinion not actual facts. Even you admit that SWTOR was a Tripple A MMO that has increased it's revenue and player base after going F2P, which proves it can and does happen.

Also again, before Lethality comes and makes a even bigger fool of himself by making claims that he can't support or are easily proven false.

I do not want to see WS go F2P, perhaps the CREDD system will be enough to keep it above what ever minimum profit margin NCSoft demands... I actually hope this is true.

I don't define WoW as hardcore. People always define hardcore differently as well, not to mention there are a lot of people saying WoW is too easy. You have your opinion, but that's it, no actual facts since hardcore have different definitions.
