New Release -- November 15th, 2011

[caroleer]

I just want to say that I really like Farm town. Out of everyone that I know who were playing it, I am the only one left that is still actively involved. I was just thinking about the cost of playing FT, and for the past 3 months of have spent 39.95 (or whatever it is for 250 coins)each month. If I bought a game for $100 and put it on my computer, it would not cost me more to continue to play it. If you didn't buy the the latest tools that make it easier to play, you would be spending far too much time just trying to get things accomplished. The time is really the reason a lot of my 'friends' stopped playing FT, so it is a big decision if you like the game. I keep thinking I am not going to spend addition funds and just make due with what I have, but then it gets boring doing the same old things all the time.

I do try to make my farms (at least 3 of them) look pretty, and that usually gives me something to keep me happy every two or three months. I am not really complaining.... just telling you how I feel about this game. Maybe someday I will stop it, or maybe I will just keep spending the money to play. But thinking about it right now.... $480.00 is an awful lot of money to spend on a 'game'! What do you guys think about it when you look at it in monetary value... do you feel it is worth the cost?

No I don't.

My grand kids do the $100 games and whilst I do love FT I am not prepared to spend more than $100 all up to play. Yes all my original neighbours have long ago given up and only since the $'s became an issue.
