    Owning the game is free.

    Playing it is not.

    I heard that it would be free to play. I naturally assume that that means it'll be funded by microtransactions.

    EDIT: The only official thing I could find about it was this "Pay your way – Flexible payment models that lower the barriers of entry and give players options based on their playing style." I take that to mean "we don't know what we're going to charge for it yet"

    Or it could be like Guild Wars? Pay for purchase and then play for free?

    $49.99 on Steam, it says, and comes with 2 free months of game time.
    After that, it's 9.99 a month.
    The game does look a bit interesting.

    Played the beta a while back. The game is complete trash. I'm surprised they're going to charge to buy it and play it. This is an MMO that is going to fail in a few months like so many others.
