well, the thing is is that most ppl in Korea play in Internet Cafes, and they also get more things in their game(since they are in GW time, ahead of us)

Korean Server = Korea?

Koreans dont HAVE To pay to play. Its an option they have.

Well why would anyone choose that option over free?

Because in Korea things called "Internet Cafe"s are popular...ALOT more popular than here. A good number of the population play on computers solely from these cafes.

This was taken into account when releasing the game there, and Korean's were gave more options for playing the game, Including not buying the game at all. Since they have no computer of their own that they play the game from, they can "rent" the game for use on these Cafe computers.

I can tell you it isn't like a WoW subcribtion.

When you consider that gaming is practically their national sport, professionals and all, no it doesn't.
