In one of blizzard meeting

Person A:  15 bucks a month should be enough for our project...world of warcraft, what do you guys think?

Flagship A:  That's it?  We should charge them additonal 10 bucks monthly just to store more character in one accounts, enble hardcore characters and able to patch up later on. They will also recive the sword of the thousand truth by email eventually because they are elite.

Person A:  Nah, we cannot do that.  We should just stack with the normal monthly plan, any more idea?

Flagship A:  WTF, I quite!

then some people follow

Flagship B:  What do we do now?

Flagship A:  Lets create a new company and make a game called Hellgate: london and charge those suckers 10 bucks just want to stock more items and characters, which is not even a mmorpg and called it a free mmo something!

all flagship people: agree, lets do that!!!

Man, you are going to get additional content with that charge as well. They are still offering a FREE online experience. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. I'm mostly interested in this game for the Single Player, and I think that alone warrants a purchase. The mulitplayer is just a plus, and if you want to pay for it, more power to ya. 

I really don't understand what the probem is here....

You dont want to pay a monthly fee, thats fine, DONT PLAY THE GAME!

And dont cry about it, the game belongs to the developer they can do whatever the hell they want to do with it.

You either want to play Hellgate and its therefore worth the fee (if you must have the extra content), or you dont want it bad enough to pay the monthly fee.  At least theyre nice enough to give us a singleplayer and a free online mode as well.

You failed to mention the ArenaNet founders. They were former WoW Blizzard employees too.

If you don't want to pay the fee then just don't. You're the consumer and you don't have an obligation to buy their product if you don't want to.
