$156.00 a year? more than double xbox live / PSN asks for? and just for one *#&$ing game? you're kidding right?
Yes, it has been mentioned many times that we plan to make a free trial period, and we don't plan to make anyone pay for the game itself. It's in the FAQ of the kickstarter page, and it has been said many times on the forum.
