Hope HnH will be free forever

I don't know how well H&H would do as a paid game, even long in the future when it's fully developed and released. On the other hand being free could be tough. As most free games use cash shops and such to support themselves. However I can't really think of anything H&H could put in a cash shop without totally ruining the way the game works, unless they added some simple +stat/skill clothing for looks, which I don't think would sell nearly well enough to support the game.

Look up kingdom of loathing.

They've been doing a cash-shop system that doesn't give uber items but instead gives great items but also letting them be traded so that the economy also functions on it.

Evony lol yea they make it look amazing but sadly it will slowly eat away your life you have to access it everywhere just to realize if you dont get on every four hours all your troops will starve in your main city because you have no life and have sent over 5 million troops to a single place

Evony also sued an English Blogger named Bruce Everiss for defamantion. A Chinese gaming industry (and seemingly imfamous gold farmer corp) suing an English blogger with a court appear in AUSTRALIA. This is their latest ads.

Anyhow, kingdom of Loathing has an excellent item mall that doesn't derail the power scaling between free players and pay players but gives you nifty things. J&L can follow the example there though may be tricky to emulate.
