For the most part all they did was wave the Character Fee of $3 from the prices before, dolled the lodestone post to make it look like we paying less ( which we are ), then came and said look discounted price. When its all said and done what we really paying is the Basic Service Fee from Previously Announced Rates.

So in short... we are paying to use the servers, and our 1st char is free. I don't know you can dress up poo to make it look better but in the end it will still be poo. I feel they shoudl just get rid of the Character Fee and just make it the Basic Service Fee, till 2.0.

Still not fully happy with price, but I'll see how many of my friends staying to see if ima keep playing or wait till 2.0/ps3
