A lot of games were p2p (every ncsoft game was p2p for long or short period of time). Games turn into f2p when they get old(or are not that good/appealing to ppl) to exist longer (look at Lineage 2 for example ,,,,,,ive played it from C1 to kamael and WoW 5y playing with sub) and some games are made f2p because well,,,,in those kind of games youll spend more money than you would for a sub (ArchAge for example or CN BnS). I can bet more ppl would spend money here (for costumes) when wardrobe would be for everyone rather than buy premium+costumes for lets say 30$ (i know ppl that dont mind progressing slower without premium (and atm premium only allows to progress faster and que priority because we dont have hongmoon levels to use that exp bonus to the fullest) and buy costumes instead), And before some White Knights bash me thinking im free user....YES I HAVE PREMIUM and i have ONLY premium because i cant afford spending another 15$ for costumes (damn with those money exchange rates now 1 costume or prem costs me the same amount of money like 2 months of sub in WoW).I dont mind letting free players have wardrobe...but if some angry whale wants restrictions for it when its free for everyone then.....lets say F2P players can store only faction roulette and cash shop costumes when premium users can store ALL of them (well another perk would be storing costumes that are not in wardrobe now for example Infinite Challenge costume or event ones). And heres an old movie about F2P games https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwI0u9L4R8U
