You "ll have to buy the game first.
But there is no monthly fee. : http://www.guildwars.com/faq/default.html

You can try it out from 29 - 31 october : the world preview event

Oh Yes for a MMO, Free is rare.
And this game is providing it.
Which means Free Fun, Nice Graphics.
Almost like Diablo, But Better!
all you gotta do is purchase the game to play.. they can keep the servers up from the money they get from expansions or chapters that they release though you do not need to buy them to keep playing with your friends.
and technically they dont actually call it a MMORPG.. they call it a "CORPG" id prefer the term mmorpg... i dont know any other CORPG's out there...
If I understand the prewiew note, You have to buy a Pre-Order pack to play the "free" preview.
EDIT: Oh.. now i understand... You dont have to buy preorder pack. Its just one of the ways of obtaining the preview-client
Ya this game is going to be to amazing to be free, like posted before: you can download the client (VERY small client compared to other ones, it's a new technology they use). For October 29-31. But the game isn't supposed to come out for the first half of 2005. But if you pre-order it, after the WPE, you can play preview the game for 3 days a month untill release. (The first weekend of each month).
