As a reformed MMO junkie this is the kind of justification I used to use when pouring thousands of hours into a game. There are ways to bond with long distance friends that you don't have to pay monthly for and aren't specifically designed to cause psychological addiction and dependence.
Or you can just waste your life getting fat and sedentary killing progressively different dragons and shit on the internet. Whatever floats your boat, really.
I don't have to pay monthly. The nice thing about ArcheAge is that you can choose to pay monthly or buy your monthly sub through in game gold. Plus, MMOs aren't the only games I play with them.
That's a pretty big assumption to make. Sure I'm not as active as I used to be, but I still go to the gym a few times a week. Asian genetics don't hurt either.
