Elder Scrolls Online opting for subscription model over F2P
"Going with any other model meant that we would have to make sacrifices and changes we weren't willing to make," Firor said. "We'll talk about further discounts, etc. later, but for now, we are very happy to finally announce our model. It's very simple - you pay once per month after the first 30 days and the entire game is available to you."
Firor also said that folks can "expect some discounts if you buy multiple months at a time," and that gametime cards will also be available as a payment option. We're not super into gametime cards ourselves, but only because we had to go to a 7/11 to buy them, and invariably we'd end up buying Dr Pepper Slurpees and sacks of powdered donuts instead, and then our guild would kick us out.

Beet But Matt Firor also said that he will later talk about discounts. So they might have a 12 month $60 option.That is actually a really smart idea. I think they will have discounts if you buy 3 months, or a full year. I think though sooner or later they will have a lifetime membership.

BoarMcNuggets_Jr What a scam...
Well I wouldn't say scam, but I guess its all you can call it.
$15 is too much for a subscription MONTHLY.
Agreed, bit of a rip off!
