Well.. that is something else entirely.. I mean it depends how they are take the " Free Trial Period".

Personally: I feel the when people say " Free Trial Period" I see a Retail Launch of the game and this is your free Period to try out this game before we charge you.

What I think SE is Planning: I think that when they say " Free Trial Period" I think they mean (While were in beta we have this time to not pay anything to SE till the Beta is completed and your Free month as up at Retail Launch.

It really all depends on how they are phrasing the Free Trial Period that determine what it actually means. I really hope a Interview can help shed that light.

Think this employee made a boo-boo. The "I don't think we'll go as late as Christmas or anything" may be out of context, but probably not the best way to frame the release of ARR. Especially since most people are expecting a January 2013 date.
I believe the January 2013 date line is for the PS3 Version of the game. The PC Version is still up in the air.
