Yes, but if we do buy and play... then eventually sales will slow down, and then we won't be able to afford to keep the servers up for the players.
Its simply not possible, hence why there are no (or very few) MMORPGs that do not use subscriptions.
Also, a lot of people may find it cheaper to pay a small sub than to pay £25 or £30 for it and then realise they don't play it much. It benefits hard core players cost wise, but there the ones that will cost us the most to run the server.
We have promised to keep the cost as low as possible, hopefully giving us some advantage over other bigger MMORPGs who often charge way more than they need to. But we do want something out of it, its taken a long time just to get this far and all the developers are working for free; I think we deserve something :)
