Why pay full price for this game? I mean really.

Well you have to remember that if the game went f2p, it might not be completely free. Games that are f2p like Pirates of the Burning Sea or Perfect World International require players to purchase in game credit or optional memberships to get most of the more interesting and powerful content. So its a question of how would POTCO work as a f2p game, would it have an option for premium membership that offers more than now, or would you have to buy credits to use certain clothing, items, ships etc. Also remember that some f2p games are much more expensive in the long run depending on how you play, so this could be bad for game play in POTCO for gamers who would not wanna go broke playing the game. I admit that POTCO does not get updates as frequent as other mmos which is a little sad considering its part of a massive franchise, but remember that Disney may not have a massive department of game development like other companies that make f2p games like Sony or Perfect World.

Actually, in POTBS you can get just about everything you need. You never need to buy anything you don't want. You can get all the ships you want and any building you want. And frankly, what you get is enough. The subscriptions and Treasure Aisle stuff are for people who want to specialize as sailors or traders. Just pointing out that it isn't absolutely necessary to have to pay for anything in POTBS. :P
