    $20 is quite cheap, some people pay $50 more for all the collectors bonuses in some games which don't amount to much.

    As it's a subscription game and not a free microtransaction game I don't think it would be appreciated. What is baffling is that ppl who wont play it threaten to quit if it's behind a paywall. Even when the question is clearly a hypothetical to see if people that like it would put their money where their mouth is.

    Clearly people wouldn't pay for it if they don't want to play it, I don't think anyone thought they would, ever. Maybe someone that buys all optional items just be be completionist?

    The reason some people who don't want it regardless are saying they would quit if it was paywalled is because of what other portions of the game that ends up opening to potential paywalling, which pushes the game down a slippery slope towards the FTP/P2W model of other MMOs. It's less about it being the particular race in question paywalled, and more about what is being paywalled.

    While the idea of seeing "if people will put their money where their mouth is," as you so perfectly put it, is not bad as a concept, I feel the general animosity that occurs in cash shop discussions may creep into this one.
