1st of all mate its 225 dollars 1st year then 180 for every year you continue playing it you said it yourself 60$ for the game come with 1 month free so : 60$ + 15$*11(11 month not 12) :/ 2nd name 1 f2p MMORPG out there that can be played normally and competitively without spending more than then 15$ a month they are making you pay. i mean it name 1 ! wow is the biggest example of how p2p will always be better than f2p. Now... in term of content if the devs don't deliver on their promise of release new content constantly then you are not getting your money's worth and u just stop paying until they do. And ofc you will have stupid communities like in wow who will keep playing even when blizzard start giving them more than 70% less content for same price.
