Square Enix is a big name in the RPG sector with their Final Fantasy series largely being a defining franchise in the genre. However, while Square Enix has made a name for themselves in the offline RPG sector they’ve also done what they could to give gamers access to vast online worlds. Starting out with Final Fantasy XI, the studio has gone on to release a second online title dubbed Final Fantasy XIV.

If you’re one of the game’s many players you’ll know that following the natural disasters in Japan, Square Enix had been forced to temporarily shut down the game’s online servers. However, you’re also sure to know that Square Enix has yet to charge anyone for its online play due to the fact that, well, the game just isn’t very good and has received criticism pretty much across the board.

Well, those thinking they’re going to have to pay anytime soon will be happy to hear that Square Enix isn’t planning to start charging folks just yet. In fact, they will allow gamers to play the game for free until they make a solid plan on how they are going to improve the game. When exactly does that mean? We aren’t quite sure but if you like the game just fine you may as well take advantage of the free online play for as long as possible, right?

Ever since Realtime Worlds announced All Points Bulletin it has been a highly sought after game with it’s GTA-like gameplay and MMO genre.

Well the developer has again stepped forward to speak of the game and this time about the subscription fees, a topic that has been under discussion for some time. David Jones of Realtime Worlds was quoted to have said the following:

“Basically, you have to buy the client. It’s a traditional game that you buy…We’re not going the normal ‘you have to subscribe to play the game every month’ route. What we haven’t said is which route we are going, and in some respects we’re still looking.”

Let’s hope that they really come up with something unique if you told World of Warcraft players they would have to pay an additional $15 a month to play APB, I don’t think they would be down.
