So I just saw that Lord of the Rings Online will get a new so-called 'pricing model' this autumn. (Read more here) What this means is that LOTRO will be completely free to play for everyone, however there will be premium features that can only be accessed by players who are 'VIP's'. Ofcourse to be a 'VIP' you will need to pay. Also, existing players will automatically become 'VIP's'.
To anyone who has ever played something like RuneScape; I guess you can compare being a LOTRO 'VIP' to being a (paying) member of RuneScape.
Now I'm curious as to what you guys, the players of WoW, think of such a feature for WoW.
Keep in mind that the game would be free to play except for certain 'premium' features which would still require you to pay (or perhaps not if you're an existing member, I'm not sure about this because the info is a little vague on the explanation there).
Please vote and post with an explanation, suggestion, idea, whatever you can come up with really Obviously there are pros and cons, do you think either of them weighs up to the other?
