??? that doesn't change the fact that you can play for free without them charging you.


I can play demos and shareware over and over again for free, but I wouldn't really call that playing the game for free.


so... Guild Wars 2 is a demo?

 

We'll see if GW2 has any staying power.  They didn't charge for the first GW1 because it wasn't really an MMO, just instanced stuff so the fans don't expect it for the second.  But every service has to have monetization, and if it isn't recurring, it's going to be either higher retail price, microtransaction, or advertising.  Nothing in life is free.
