Everything cost money to upkeep, including server we play on, production costs, maintenance.. All of this comes at a hefty price, they have to pay for it somehow, anyway there are a lot of sites giving away free registered account with three booster packs. I don't disagree that you have to buy booster, but the amount you actually do buy is set by you, they don't force you to buy them so you don't have to spend that much money. Once this game comes out though I will definitely be playing it over anything else though!!!!
