Lifetime plans look like a no-brainer on the math, but vendor longevity is the real variable. Here is when lifetime makes sense and when monthly wins.
The math
Lifetime €239 vs monthly €36 means breakeven at month 7. If you play CS2 for 2+ years, lifetime saves €625. If the vendor disappears at month 8, you wasted €203 vs monthly.
- Breakeven: month 7
- 1 year saving with lifetime: €193
- 2 year saving: €625
- Risk: vendor longevity
How to decide
Pick lifetime only if the vendor has 2+ years public track record (we have 4). Otherwise stick monthly and reassess every 6 months.
