Yup heard about this. Definitely a good move and will bring in needed players. Not only that but needed bug fixes and content updates/additions.

At least they let you play all races and classes until level 20 to see if you like it. I think that is fair if you want to try it (unlike what they did with EQ2). Really they should've just dropped the monthly rate to like $5/mo for gold. Hate all the fluff items (even if I am tempted to buy a boat).
