Surely its a bit high if compared to LOTRO or WOW, and I woiuld definitely love a 9.9 fee but if it isn't happenin I'm not gonna cry about it I just hope I aint playing other MMOS when STO comes out 15 a month is perfectly fine with me.

WoW is £8.99 a month and lets face it, I think £15 a month is the most you can squeeze out of people, providing that the game is any good. And I have my doubts on this one.

Are you kidding? €15 is a lot of money? So what if they make €10 profit out of every €15 you give them? A trip to the cinema would cost just as much, and that only lasts a few hours. Two packs of cigarettes, which would last a day or two at most, or a few beers, which wouldn't last the evening, would also cost just as much. To be honest, I'd rather pay €15 for a months entertainment than €15 for two hours entertainment. I fail to see how that's stealing. Or do you expect the company to run on a show-string budget out of the goodness of their own hearts? “so when u think about that, u realise how stupid ppl can be for paying so much money to these companies. or maybe these ppl don’t know what work actually is.”
