it's p2p

http://tera-europe.com/faq.html

guild wars 2 = pay for the box and play for free
tera = monthly fee, not sure if u gotta pay for the box tho

i dun really mind playing around crybabies and whiners aka school kids provided the game is good content wise and not cash dependant too much (Dragon Nest anyone?). i can always ignore the whole world chat altogether and only turn it on if i have to. i got nothing to lose. i dun mind shelling out cash monthly if i think it's worth it either. heck i played mRO for a good 4 years back when it was hot. and i certainly dun mind paying a one time fee for a key as well. take Diablo3 for example. tho it goes from bug ridden to totally crap in a mere one month time that i had to rage quit. anyway, i was just pointing out the difference between GW2 and Terra, and whether Terra is p2p or f2p. i kinda saw someone threw in a question in this thread regarding this.
