Unlocking future classes on your character paying 2$/month to increase the cap on the armory system if you already had the current 19 unlocked could be considered an optional service too. Yet I don't think that anyone would be OK with that.

So, where do we stop the F2P in a P2P then? Everything is good as long as you don't care about the feature? How can people defend this when, if this wasn't this way, everyone would benefit? Do people really think that the cost of those two retainers is even a 0.1% of those 2$ and that they don't get enough profits from our subs to cover that? And what about a lot of the other issues that should be covered by our subs, like servers (lag and disconnections on certain days, delay, EU having its servers across the pond, etc.), that should be fixed before even daring to try to charge for other things?

Lots of questions, I know, but if I ever tried to recommend the game to anyone after we got the two retainers implemented for an additional monthy sub... I wouldn't be able to answer any of them without looking like an idiot.
