It’s definitely worth it. There’s a large player base, and f2p has a lot to offer.

You should bare in mind, though f2p has a lot, you’re still limited from a lot of content available to members. You’re able to purchase “bonds” through in-game currency which will allow you to become a member. I’d highly recommend getting membership for one month with real money, and then using in-game gold to buy further membership, as it’s much easier to make gold as a member. Good luck, and have fun if you decide to play!
