Actually, aside from the steep learning curve of the game pad functions (I’m coming from a asdf environment aka pc keyboard) I love the game and have tried to put in as much time as possible before the trial ends. Now I’m trying to find out do I have to buy a retail version and if I install a retail version do I lose the progress already made? As far as the subscription fees go it would be a easy sell if I could buy 100 hour blocks,

Ff 14 can actually be found new in places lile game stop for like 20-30 dollars and usually comes with a free month membership. It is an extremly good game and worth the money if u can put hours into it. If u dont have the free time id say its not worth it. But i will say that i didnt buy it cause of the monthly charge but about a month ago my friend finally guilted me into trying it and since then if im not sleeping or at work ive been on that game.
