That's actually very good news that there's a one-off purchase. That way, they're less likely to scare off MMO newcomers and those not interested in paying a subscription. I'm the latter, so I'll definitely be considering purchasing the game now. Hopefully more MMOs will follow the lead of TESO and Guild Wars 2 in the future and feature a one-off purchase.

BTW Timoin, hope you're holding up in this weather. It's raining quite a bit down my way, but there's no flooding. We didn't even have any back in the 2011 floods, and it helps that my street is on a hill.
