The Secret World Pricing Model Revealed

You'll probably want to me to say The Secret World is using a free-to-play model, or better yet, Funcom decided to implement a risky "pay the gamer to play the game" model.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Funcom's MMO will follow a traditional subscription model with an in-game store where players can purchase character customization items and other things. Don't worry, Funcom says that most of the purchasable goods will be cosmetic and won't give players instant advantages.

For a full preview of this game, check out Phil Kollar's excellent write up.
