Yet another major MMO has been forced to adopt a F2P model

Many people unfairly assume that adopting a free-to-play model is the sign that a game has failed, but in the instance of WildStar, it was definitely a series of failures on the developer’s part that led to this. While I’ll spare you a nerdy analysis on the highly-anticipated MMO’s flaws, just know that the developer’s recent decision to drop its subscription model in favor of a F2P model isn’t surprising. This is yet another sign that World of Warcraft is the only MMO that can maintain a subscription model nowadays.
