I'm tired of people saying "if it's a good game, I hope it's f2p". I mean what the hell guys if it's gonna be a good game then I think it's worth paying to play it both by our perspective and company's. Besides there has to be a difference in quality between f2p games and p2p games.

 If I enjoy the free trial, then yes, I would. I would never pay for a game without trying it out first for free, because I would rather not waste money subscribing or buying something that I end up not liking. Subscription fees are not a problem for me since I now have a debit card, so yes, I wouldn't mind it if they had a subscription fee. Of course, I would much rather they followed the Guild Wars buy-to-play route, but if it is worth a subscription, I wouldn't mind paying a subscription fee.

 why the hell not, evreyone been paying for games that is inferior to this game already, every dam mmo out is point and click, exception with age of conan but who cares about that hideous game with hideous combat..

But Still,
Not Everybody Has The Money 2 Sub A Game.
Most People Would Like 2 Buy From A Item Mall Or Something.
Most People Who Are Just Getting Around Would Never Play A Game What Needs Sub.
But Maybe IF They Would Follow The Guild Thing, It Would Go Out Pretty Well.

afaik the game will be f2p. the devs were talking about it in the first video i seen posted on mmorpg.com

...i might be wrong since it was a while since i seen the vid. I'll try and look for it to confirm.

So far from what I've seen this game looks like its well worth to pay for. As far as people not being able to afford P2P games is just an excuse. A person could easily clip their neighbors yard for $15 a week or wash their car for that much, you don't really have to apply some where to make money to pay for this game. Hell even a kid who is given lunch money could set some of that aside to pay for the game everyday or week if he really wanted to pay for the sub. As far as If a person is just getting by on what they have, they need re-access their own priorites in life before even thinking about playing an online game. Over all there really is no justified reason why a person should not pay for good content.

where are u getting "most" people? u mean most kids who dont have money?

anyone with even a part time can pay for it, unless your super cheap. obvioulsy this is a top notch game, why would it be cheapin with item malls and shit? alot of people pay for quality

The only way I'd play it is if it was P2P. F2p's still aren't where they need to be in order to justify me spending time on them, and spending my money in a shop.

I'll wait for a beta first then decide.

I tend to believe in waiting to the 3-6 month mark now.  I know it can be harder to not be in at launch but I just do not like the way MMOs tend to run at launch.

this is actually very very smart in todays games simply for the fact that you need to see if the game will survive.  Hellgate London failed before even 1 year...  Tabula Rasa failed rather quick too. Games just don't last like they used too.

in a heartbeat i would buy the game for 60 and still pay a monthly fee. looks to good to not try for at least a month

I think will buy it and play first month to see if i like jumping on wall or fighting in the air :D

but must say i liked style of this game but still miss class alike ninja assassins from feudal Japan :D

hell yeah i wud

I would happily b2p, it looks awesome, and seeing that it will most likely end up being p2p, I think I would probably do that to. This game looks amazing!

I would definitely play it if it went the B2P route.  I wish more companies would follow in GW's footsteps.  I doubt I would sub to this game, unless it was proven to be worth the money and time.  The videos look amazing, but so did Aion's.  Not that Aion is a failure or that bad of a game.  It's just too much of a grind, and I don't mean the leveling.  I'm afraid B&S will be the same.

After seeing the long trailer, would you pay a one-time $29-$49 for Blade & Soul if it didn't have a monthly subscription?

I dont know until I try it. If I like a game enought I pay, but I doubt I'd like b&s enought to pay for it.

it's 100% guaranteed to be subscription based.  Did you even watch the trailer.  They talk about the crazy amounts of time and money already spent on just the early stages of development on what people would expect is little stuff like Qing-Gong.

but yet in your sig it says you are waiting for GW2 which is f2p

Every member of my clan will play Blade & Soul

B&S is the best mmo fantasic genre ever made.

Revolutionary

If it is a good game then yes. I will pay for it, and pay a monthly fee if I enjoy it.
