I've playing this game for about 25 days,my subscription got like 5 days left. anyways,I don't have the money atm to pay for another(sadly my boss wont pay me for I have to work like full month >.<)

anyways my question,I have experience with other mmos that went f2p like Swtor. will there be some sort of Restrictions on f2p or will be like Secret world,buy once and your all good?

Appreciate some feed back,maybe a Dev could clarify it for me

love this game btw

    Right now, no restrictions. Subs will get a slight boost in XP/gold gains on top of what it is now.

    Later, you might not be able to enter new areas that are added to the game unless you either sub(effectively renting the access) or buy the access (to that particular area) specifically.

    Once the new pay model comes on March 17th, you will have access to everything that there is now, and including the next big update which will have Justice system and Champion Point system.

    Then, when they start coming out with DLC, you will have to pay for those to have access to them, or continue to sub (pay the $15/month) and basically rent the DLC.

    But everything there is right at this moment and through the next update, you will be able to play for free.

    Very good question, but if it was really just B2P then yeah all content should be there for you. But once you have to buy DLC's that will put it more into F2P. As time goes am pretty sure it will go complete F2P where you will need to buy things to keep going forward. Like I said before I hope it does not go the LOTRO way, worse F2P game ever. Even if you pay sub they still try and force you to buy little things to keep money flowing in.

    That pretty much sums up what is wrong with B2P switch. Why do you hope ESO will be like one of the games you apparently do not want to play, hm?
