yeah i don't like paying the money either but i will cause i feel the game is good enough for it. I feel there is a few downsides though. Like having to pay an extra dollar for a character i really dislike that. They should have done what Everquest did and let you have so manny like 6 or 8. I think paying for Tetra Master is retarted though. How good is it anyway, i won't get to play till i get a new mother board cause my last one fried .
