The free trial period for Final Fantasy XIV has been extended again by an additional 30 days.
The news comes after the game received a frosty critical reception. PC Gamer gave it 30 per cent, noting in its review: "The kindest thing that can be said about the Final Fantasy MMO is that it has a good intro movie."
The Nerd Stash: "After a decade, Aurum Vale is still regarded as the worst dungeon in FFXIV. Still, it is a rite of passage for new players."
ESTNN writes: "On the eve of FFXIV's highly-anticipated Final Fantasy 15 collaboration event, the developers issued a statement on the game's official forum about the latest wave of player bans."
RMT ruins the economy for people who aren’t paying for in game money. Prices sky rocket for items. They really need to come up with a system that prevents in game money/item sales and still be able to trade items. I’m sure it can be done but the cost to do it is the issue.
Remember, dudes, game companies have no issues if you pay money to THEM to "save the time"
But how dare you pay to somebody else.

And then we'll talk. Myself and many others here and on the official forums were bemoaning how wretched the beta was and how it was in no state to launch and they went ahead with it anyhow.
Easily one of the worst launches in MMO history.
I don't even know if F2P will save the game at this point.
