I played the game a couple months after launch because of how big of a deal it was at the time. I got to around level 15 on a Jedi Knight tank before I had to stop playing for personal reasons. By the time everything got back to normal my month of gametime had expired and I honestly didn't have a reason to spend $15 to keep playing, probably because I didn't play enough to see what it had to offer. I just went straight back to WoW and didn't look back for a while.
Then I heard it went F2P and thought I'd give it a try again, but then after reading into it a little more I found out that their F2P model was horrible, and still is apparently. My main MMO is WoW, and that's the only MMO I'm going to pay a subscription for. But I am looking for an MMO on the side to play that is F2P that'll keep me occupied when I have nothing to do in WoW (which is a lot of the time).
So my question is, is the F2P model good enough so that I can enjoy the game without paying a subscription?
I would download it and try it out but even with my awesomely high speed (and expensive) internet connection, I live in Canada where apparently data caps are necessary. So I don't want to potentially waste 10-15 GB of my 140 for the month on something I may play for like an hour. I'd rather get your opinions on it first. What I'm looking for is a fun levelling experience AND some endgame also, but all completely F2P.
