I think most people is misinterpreting my original post, I'm not saying I'm worried about SE planning on making ARR F2P, I'm talking about the mindset of the US/EU consumer base, which is rejecting any P2P mmo's currently.

I played Tera and a lot of other mmo and I know why they are becoming free to play, but there have been so many lately, and with the initial fiasco of XIV it may be that the consumers won't eve bother anymore to purchase any new MMO's feeling their investment won' be worth it, not even letting he game a chance because they assume how it will become.

It's good for SE to provide an open beta so everybody ca try it as a marketing scheme, but thy should give a unlimited free trial till lvl 20 or so like WoW does to convince the reluctant customers to see that the game is actually great.
