SDO still considering things regarding payment methods.

The following scenarios (even all of it together) were discussed among their lines:

- Game would be playable for free
- With subscription, players would get double XP and AP.
- They're planning to have cash shops too, for xp-ap multipliers (2x-3x-4x) and with accessories


Earlier today they've held an other conference about payment methods, since they couldn't seem to find the right one and they might be reconsidering the 'f2p' part saying "it may not fit the game".





"NCCoins, here they come! ...."
Each territory uses a business model that is appropriate to that territory, and we will be doing the very same for EU/NA. The fact that Korea uses a model X, China uses model Y and Japan goes with Z does not imply what course we will be setting sail in here.

(not directly a reply to you lyana, but to anyone who might be confused)
