@3 I can’t believe people are still using that model. Pay out your ass, then pay some more.

It’s really no wonder that people have trouble selling those games like that.

This is probably going to cause Funcom to go under :(

@7: I hope so. But if it’s anything like their Conan f2p model, it will be a terrible experience.

@8: I thought that too, but that song is also on Shutter Island Soundtrack. Was probably used during the credits. Like Richter’s version way more.

They should’ve used a song from ‘The Fountain’ instead.

@4 That was exactly what I though when I found out it’ll be a sub-based game. I mean you have much more superior sub-based competitors than Buy 2 Plays, they should’ve had a Guild Wars 2 like model. I wont even point out WoW, There’s Rift and Terra and SWTOR out there which non of them has a strong sub-base they’re just getting by. It feels like they’re trying to fight a battle that they’re not gonna win and they know it, so they have lined their pawns for a big push before surrender.
