I probably would not pay for episode unless …

1. The servers got a SERIOUS upgrade.

2. The game started to offer “more” – right now the game doesn’t have very much depth. It feels deeper than it is because of things like sTalk and the Bookmarks and generally the way the game is structured. For me to pay for it, it would have to genuinely gain more depth to it.

3. I got another/more character slots and/or more forum visits/day.

Also, a lot of the forums are visually … lacking … most forums on the internet use standardized download packages and have better visuals than the ones represented in the game.

I would expect to see some major polish before I pay cash for this game.

For free games I don’t care what the quality of gameplay/visuals/interface, etc. is like, but when you enter the realm of a pay-for game I come to expect much more.

This game is INCREDIBLE for a free game, but for a pay-for game … well I guess that depends on the would-be-price.

Hope this candor helps you with your decision.
