The mighty cash cow has partially switched to free to play!

I wonder if this is a response to other big name games going free to play?

or have they just got to the point where the money bin is full enough for Scrooge to swim in?

It used to be a 14 day trial, with limitations.  Now it is a level 20 trial, probably still with some limitations.  Means you can play as long as you want to only 1/4 of the content.

My guess is that future updates will contain little or no new content for the missions under lvl 20 .
