not a poorly made game, by a unknown developer, by a shoddy publisher in a market where MMOs are already on shaky ground!
if this was pay than at least they would of had some cash up front, but the way that it was organised most people would of tried it, got bored with it and quit.
then they would of seen squat from 90% of their players!

In fact, many F2P games who were subscription-based had their profits go through the roof after they switched, like DC Universe Online.
