Is it a subscription or unlock type? I still think it would be better if they had it like rift.

It is a subscription. And no it shouldn't be like Rift. Then you will have an entire army of children ruining the late game/paid for content. People need to realize that the developers need to make money with this stuff, and they're not just going to give you everything that is fun just so you can enjoy the game. The make you pay for the fun stuff because if you pay and all you get is a cape or two and double XP nobody will buy it. If they just said "Here you guys go, we don't want any money we want you people to just enjoy the game!" then there would be no game industry. tl;dr don't be a bum, get a job and pay for stuff if you want it, not everything is free.
