yeah if you know its a game you will get your money out of those life time subs are super sweet. if ESO offered one, I might have to really consider it. I know my nephew would definitely consider it, he is a huge Eldar scrolls fan, but with a sub and no constant internet access, he had to pass on the game. If they offered a life time, he would definitely work towards that, and I almost got him talked into the game if he worked it out around his birthday and christmas to pay for 6 months of sub at a time, its just his lack of internet that is the issue, as he only has internet when he hangs out at my house, or his moms parents.
Anyways as far as the subscription deal, its just a standard deal. Wish they offered a better rate than simply 2 bucks off each month for 6 months, maybe a 1 year sub that was 10.99 per month, that would be nice. So basically either pay as you go each month for the 15 as month, or lump it together and save 12 bucks at a time, but still having to come up with 78 dollars at a time.
