Trion’s Defiance to Go Free-to-Play on June 4, Follows Rift’s Lead with Patron Passes
Nowadays, when it’s announced that an MMO has begun a free-to-play transition, it comes as little surprise. This is especially the case with Defiance, but not because the game has been “dying”. I logged on about a week ago, and the server still seemed to have a healthy playerbase. But with a…..
