    Very interesting to read. I like where the party dialogue system was going. It is definitely something unique to this MMO. Some of the user commenting on the article are probably going to be sorely disappointed by the fee (which I assume will be there), but money has to come from somewhere to keep the game operational.

    I have no problems paying for a top quality MMO.

    Yeah I truly hope they don't go microtransactional.

    Same. One flat monthly fee to give everyone the same features as opposed to giving it to only those who are willing to pay extra.

    Agree I don't mind a $15 / month fee, but hate this micro trend we are seeing.

    There were a few tipoffs that bioware wants to go monthly in their interviews. This is good news indeed!

    i highly doubt they'll go microtransactional. The microtransactional model seems to work best on games where they need to lure you in as a "free" game. This game will certainly not need that.

    Besides, the big MMOs make such a large part of their money from people who have accounts and hardly ever play (or even forget they have an account!), that I doubt they'd want a system where people are only paying when they're actually playing.

    Yeah I think over 72 hours of voice over pretty much seals the deal on monthly sub needed!
