This is one game that I have a love hate relationship, if they did not have a poor f2p model, such as f2p gets 50% less xp gain. (no other game I know does this). Which makes some members elitists, thinking they are better then f2pers. The story is nice, and worth playing through, but unfortunately the less xp gain is what causes many people just to try then just leave.
I get members should get the keys to the kingdom, I always thought that is fair. However, when the game dev. intentionally gimps f2pers, that makes people not want to really. I wonder if the devs of Star Wars tor, got rid of that moronic xp gimp, how many people would play? I know I would play more then I have been.
