Pay attention Archeage.

We believe in letting everyone play the game as itÔÇÖs intended to be played ÔÇô skill-based progression throughout all the available content. No paywalls will hold you back, and no amount of money will give you an unfair competitive advantage over other players. We donÔÇÖt like pay-to-win, so what we are offering are cosmetics, convenience, and consumables ÔÇô not power, not gear, not permanent stat increases. WeÔÇÖre also going to make sure that we have a regular schedule of content updates that everyone will be able to enjoy.

Because that's how it should be done! HOTS has shown and LoL have shown how HUGE you can become $ wise with cash items and skins and the like.

The fact that its NC Soft shows that their completely free models work. AION pulled back from oblivion with such a model as did Lineage 2.

I like that they are going to have an option for a sub. Definitely a game to put on my "Watch" list
