It's like you didn't even bother to read the title. It says in the title there will be a shop.

I would like to agree with this as well.

It is pricey when you take into account what the game is itself, it really isn't looking worth it at this point, and then for it to be coming to console is laughable, they will lose most of their fan base that would've bought the game for console.. The main problem I have with sub games is alone it's fine, but unless you plan on playing nothing but that game alone subs will add up, like I wanted to play Wildstar and TESO, but I'm not paying $30 a month just to switch on and off occasionally (especially since I usually switch frequently), also not going to alternate months because I shouldn't have to. And then I would also want other games.

i don't honestly think its worth the sub. it seems to light of a game. just my opinion though.

I completely agree, it's going to have to have to change quite a bit before I consider.
I'm kind of curious to know why they went with the sub model after a ton of games failing to keep the model.

Yea! I can name all the ones I played that I found fun!...Oh wait, that's none despite playing most sub mmos out right now.
I completely hate the logic that an mmo has to be sub based for it to be good. It's completely idiotic, unless the game's only objective is to grab money and contains no depth at all, it's completely opinion based and a game like Neverwinter for example, has no difference in quality vs the sub games that are out. It has a different feel and style which could be a turn off but the quality is there.
It's also why I hate the people that like sub games for the "quality". It has nothing to do with the model, it's the developer's fault for making a stuffty game.
