On this week’s podcast, Justin and I discussed the general MMO blogger sentiment that Black Desert’s recent business model drama — specifically, the addition of an optional sub and the entry of cash-shop items on the in-game auction hall — heralds a plan to drop the game’s box fee and essentially go free-to-play. I suspect it’s an eventuality, but whether the team’s recent actions reveal a plan in action or just affirm a desire to make more money in the short-term? That I don’t know for sure. What do you think — is Black Desert destined for free-to-play in the west? To the pollmobile!
