This thread title makes me want to re-watch The Bourne Ultimatum..

I think the 8 hour cap should be eliminated also. When I was introduced to this game I didn't quite understand the aspect of it. I would say for myself it took about 6 hours to even grasp what needed to be done and to understand it; which doesn't leave much room in doing anything else but to subscribe. Since you have to subscribe you then are kinda forced into playing this game since it's monthly subscription. I am not saying that you should give it out for free for a month but a two week cap should be sufficient enough to understand it better and then maybe subscribe to it with better understanding what your spending your money.

I really don't see how anybody can play for eight hours and not know whether it's worth $10 to play another month. You're blowing this up into some huge expensive commitment when it isn't. You can pay for a single month if you use PayPal, or if you use a credit card you can just sign up for the $10/mo subscription and then cancel if it turns out you don't like the game enough to keep going.

If you're so pressed for funds that you can't risk $10 even after an eight hour trial, then you can't afford a subscription anyway.
