The only way to get rid of all these restrictions is to pay $15 per month (so much for f2p).

You also literally buy power out of the item shop. More than any other F2P game I have seen.

Also, unlike other F2P games, you cannot earn the item shop currency (Station Cash) in game.

Basically, if you watch that movie above and took the list of everything not to do, SOE pretty much does it all, and to extremes.

Regular Everquest 2 isn't nearly as bad of course, but you can buy stuff like +100% experience potions.
