(I think it's more than the free-to-play model it's more that there is a lot of competitive offers,) suggests Lusinchi. (If it was just free-to-play games and they weren't very good it wouldn't even be a question but there are definitely good games out there and good games coming out, so of course all of this competition impacts your plan with what you want to do.)Unfortunately, the rest of the interview is only available in the print or digital version of the magazine, so that's the only tease we're able to provide.
Still, the advantages of free-to-play haven't gone unnoticed by the developer. Asked whether it would be feasible to adapt The Old Republic to a free-to-play model, Lusinchi coyly suggests that the wheels may be in motion for a drastic change.
(The MMO market is very dynamic and we need to be dynamic as well,) he says. (Unless people are happy with what they have, they are constantly demanding updates, new modes and situations. So we are looking at free-to-play but I can't tell you in much detail. We have to be flexible and adapt to what is going on.)
