Noctis Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 is this Free?? This seems to follow browser based games strategy games like evony, battle dawn etc. So I guess its going to be free with the option to buy premium game content.

gonekrazy3000 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 i hope they keep it free to play like a few other mmo's do in the sense that pretty much anything can be achieved by playing the game except for cosmetic changes that a few will pay money for..... as long as the gameplay itself doesnt get unbalanced by paid items i'm happy. also.... to people that might not know Robot entertainment comprises of ex-ensemble studios employees. So the series is in good hands. I have faith that this game will rock too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
