Well if you want to play as is now, but with out the bugs, i.e rising the ranks of cutlass, pistol and sailing, never to get voodoo and beyond, never getting to play on to big boss battles and other mega quests, to bring even more special features, then sure you'll play free. Not to mention once open, theyll probs restrict levels you can get too, to encourage you to subscribe of course.
But when your friends go on about how wicked the boss battle was, and how they got the so and so from it, making them even more powerfull and notorious, don't grumble, you get it free right...who needs to pay subs.
Think about it, $10 or less for bulk buy, for unlimited access.. hmmm, ultimately, which would YOU choose.
Yes most of us will pay for full WORKING, unrestricted access, just like we have for certain other games, the ads will only take up valuable resources in game anyways.
I know which I will choose already thx.
