I am sure most of you do not care but I had to say my piece.

If you opt to NOT PAY for CoX.... you lose access to incarnates and invention origin enhancements. When I started playing this game in Feb 2007.... we did not have incarnates or invention origin enhancements and I still enjoyed the game enough to pay for it.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. If I started today as a new player, I would not pay for CoX. Everything I want to do can be done for free. I keep paying only for the luxury of maintaining my many toons.
Now YOU have the luxury of simply opening multiple free accounts to have as many toons as you like. YOU do not need money to play this game, and YOU DO NOT NEED MONEY TO HAVE FUN. I would even go so far as to argue that the people with money - buying XP boosters, and paying to unlock their capes and other such nonsense - are MISSING OUT on all the fun this game has to offer.
Play for free. Have fun.

yeah...if you want to know what's really genuinely commercialized, it's having to pay $14.99 a month or THEY DON'T LET YOU LOG IN.

I know I boloed a dish when husband kindly suggests take-out and or find him in the kitchen the next day. Which seems to happen pretty often.
