not quite sure i amd seeing mixed quotings here and it's been about a couple months ince i played. i signed up when they gave free accounts and i'm jsut makin sure if the game is still free to play.

Yes it is still free

It's as free as breathing.  But there is a cash shop, which isnt my favorite thing.

It was a good enough game to pay for, but this way they can insure that they make some sort of profit and it wasn't a major lost in profit to the point that if they didn't do it this way this game would've been scraped and begone with.

Cash Shops are good when they are selling stuff that gives a slight uniqueness or advantage to the player. Horrible when they completely unbalanace the game.. or in otherwords forcing you to pay without being able to have fun.

I think cash shops are very good, but only if the items sold within the shop are fair and don't damage the equilibrium of the game in any form.

its free but you need a premium service in order to level up faster and farm faster... lolz coz if you didnt it will take 10 years to lvl up lolzzz

Levelling isn't that slow, at least in my experience. I only just started though

the leveling gets slow at lv40ish

drops stop at around 35

i found myself having money problems as you burn through pots in this game to the point where i would have to pick up noobs drops or npc items i didnt want to.

also leveling defense skill sucks, you just gotta sit there and take it from a mob and drain your hp pots

if you can get past that its a pretty fun game, although im not sure what state its in now, i heard that bots and spammers over ran this game, not sure about that...was thinking of giving it another try though.

I think  it free to play now... if you wanna play RF play now coz they have so many bugs now a days so it is easy to level up

yeah it is still free however if you want level up faster you must subscribe to their premium subscription your exp and drop rate will be doubled i guess....
