What would be your ideal subscription fee?

It depends on the game for me. For example, WoW deserves its monthly fee with being an iconic game (in my opinion). But if the game itself is not so popular, or kind of a new game in the market; I would say maximum ideal fee would be 6-7 dollars for one month.

 

I'd much prefer an MMORPG where you just pay once and have access to the game permanently; a good price point would probably be $60 for a pay-once model since that's the typical cost of games you'd find at the game store. Then the rest of how the game company makes money could just be in-game paid features like microcurrency.

I'm not really a fan of subscription renewals, because you'll have times when you won't be playing as much (which is a waste of money, especially for the main demographic which is primarily children (particularly teenagers) that spend most of their time at school). And the biggest thing to be concerned about is when you don't renew your subscription, you could lose your account just because game companies think you've quit playing for a long time. But if there really has to be subscription renewals, then I think a fair annual price would be $5, which adds up to $60 in 12 years which is an excellent bargain since most $60 games aren't even played for that long, plus it would easily attract more consumers.
