I think I've guessed that it was going to be subscription based like WoW, but it was confirmed that the game requiring you to pay every month to play ESO for the price of $15. Honestly, it's not that much considering how much hype and excitement there has been for ESO. ESO has been one of my highly anticipated games ever since the game was announced. I signed up for beta, but unfortunately, I didn't get a response back. I think this will be the next big WoW if they designed the game well enough to keep players entertained and have unlimited gameplay material.
