    Assuming you mean free-to-play or pay-to-play, it's a Pay-to-play game.



    It will be included with Station Access, and though I don't think it's been directly said, I'd imagine it would have the same monthly rate as the other games included with Station Access if you were to pay for it alone.

    Like every MMORPG, it has a monthly subscription.  I believe it will be $15. 

     

    Guild Wars is also not a MMORPG for all those looking to argue.  It's a series of instanced small party adventures, which is much easier to maintain and keeps server costs way down.

    Uh...name one high quality free MMO, and I already stated why Guild wars doesn't count.  This game has top of the line graphics (anyone who says otherwise hasn't played at High Quality), an extremely busy development team, and a full complement of community support folks. 

     

    Sure there are plenty of fun free MMO's out there, but they aren't on the same level as the pay ones.

    Well...  is Guild Wars:



    A - Massively multiplayer - yes.

    B - Online - yes.

    C - role-playing - yes.

    D - game - yes.



    Thus Guild Wars is an MMORPG.





    But also other free MMOs - Anarchy Online, Archlord, Silk Road, Maple Story, Runescape, ROSE Online, Second Life... just off the top of my head.

    I'd take exception with A. The game is instanced completely and even the town areas are instanced. Its multiplayer but not massively so. A lot of people host NWN servers but that doesn't make it an MMOG.



    I'm not saying its a bad game at all, but it does not have the same sense of Massive as other MMOG's.

    I'm not saying Guild Wars is bad, or any of the free to play MMO's.  I'm just saying they are run with an entirely different setup and business model then the major MMORPG's.  They cut costs in certain areas so that they don't need a monthly fee.  Guild Wars limits the Massively Multiplayer part of their game and it allows them to run a streamlined business. 

     

    Anyways, as to the free MMO's lists...Anarchy Online WAS a pay to play until it reached old age, and the rest just aren't in the same ballpark as EQ2, WoW, CoH, Final Fantasy Online, and now Vanguard.  Again, not saying they are terrible, but you couldn't pay ME to play Archlord.  Maple Story is excellent if you are in 6th grade.

     

    I also consider Dungeons and Dragons Online to be in the same ring as Guild Wars, and I think it's a crime that they charge a monthly fee for that game.

    Yeah. I know they do, I just think they are wrong. When I play Guild Wars, I don't feel like I'm playing with thousands of other people.
