Topic: The new "Subscription" model
With Elite Dangerous, i am playing a game that has a similar payment model as Guildwars, but delivers differently.
Guildwars, you pay for the game, and expansions, but the server is free to play.
Elite Dangerous looks like the same at the first glimpse, but there is one major difference:
"Expansions" are not full content upgrade upon release. You basicly pay for the next year of development and content patches, like a subscription, just yearly, instead of monthly.
is this a trend in the gaming industry ontop of the kickstarter investment system, or just a unique thing?
