Yeah man, the things you buy will most likely be required unless you want to farm for 30 hours. The people that brought you fighter's alternate costume dlc that's already on the disk.
I think its because a lot of them are really gross in the way they're structured.

Well it was already downgraded visually now I think it's safe to say it's been downgraded in terms of quality.

Kinda disappointing but I still have some faith in the game, everything I've seen about it from the graphics, gameplay, setting, music etc looks really cool. I'll give it a try at least, that's for sure.

Does that mean it won't require PS+?

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
F2P could be good or could be bad....

Correct
People are quick to dismiss Capcom efforts to make a F2P title. And they would be rightly so.
Well now I'll definitely try it. I was intrigued before, but it certainly had a chance of being something that I might let go by. Now I'll definitely give it a go.
That's why I'm a little unsure of my feelings on f2p. When it's a game that I'm definitely sold on and will buy day 1, I don't want it to be f2p. But stuff like this which I know I might not try at $60, it makes me kind of relieved. I feel that way about KI too.
Although, if I try it, love it, and then hate the payment model -- I'll be upset. So mixed emotions on f2p in general.

As long as it isn't pay to win, I'm cool with it.

What makes you think Sony is any better than Capcom when it comes to F2P?
Microtransactions out the ass. Yay.
well i have to assume they can use that engine on other games
I did not expect F2P though

First the online only and now F2P? I am definitely worried about this game.

I don't think I've ever played a f2p game I'm not sure what this even means as far as overall experience. Will wait till the pay model is out I guess.
How I feel....
Only one asking the right question, man.

Well, the game looked awesome based on the Sony TGS stage demo with people who know hot to play it playing it, but I would still have needed to see more if I were going to buy it. At least now, I have no problem downloading it without seeing more footage. It'd be cool if there were an in-app purchase for like $20 or $30 that unlocks all the content for those that end up wanting a "full" experience.

Colour me sceptical. But who knows, maybe it turns out well.

Isn't Sony publishing it?

Yeah, I really wish F2P would die already. In other words, to get anywhere "deep" in the game, (get it?) you'll have to buy a ton of armor, potions, weapons.........this will be a microtransaction nightmare IMHO.
Being F2P doesn't disqualify a retail release - PSO2 and Samurai & Dragons for Vita are both F2P but have retail releases.

I thought it was exclusive because Sony was helping develop it; or was that never confirmed?
Have no clue honestly. Not much has been revealed to us.
DCUO was pretty well handled F2P, and I've heard the same with Planetside 2.
If Capcom has too much freedom, we're fucked for sure.
