EverQuest 2: Adventure Pack Details @ GameSpot
   

GameSpot is <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/news/2005/01/06/news_6115915.html" target="_blank">reporting</a> that Sony Online has revealed an upcoming 'EverQuest II' content package dubbed an "Adventure Pack" to them. This update will strengthen the story and will be partially free - but some features will require an additional fee. Here's a snippet:<blockquote><em>LAS VEGAS-Though a formal announcement won't be made until next week, we were able to spend some time with Sony Online Entertainment to discuss its forthcoming plans for updating the popular PC role-playing game, EverQuest II. With 310,000 paying subscribers on the books after just a couple of months, it sounds like the game has taken hold quite well since its release. With a forthcoming update that comes in a new form known as an "adventure pack," SOE hopes to deliver a more engrossing story for its players, complete with a new zone, new items, new monsters, and of course, new quests. </em></blockquote>

Interesting
   

Interesting revenue model. The paid content will have to be more than just "nice loot" though to be compelling.

My big question would be, if people are willing to pay extra for content does that mean the end of free content updates?
