buy to play is a valid option.

Free to play with microtransactions can be one too. Do not misunderstand me some games fail horibly when they end up being pay to win,but things like xp boosts, skins,maybe mid-end gear (definetly not high end high level gear, that ruins the game), and other things like that do not really give an edge to those paing compared to the rest.

As for pay to play, sorry but no, it will fail horibly as most wont be in the actuall mood to pay every monthly subscription considering the curent economic situation and the target age group that consists primarily of people on their 20's not having a steady job.
