It's the same as getting a statue or whatever, it's all pretty meaningless. There are people who don't even care to be an imperial getting all whiny about it, it really doesn't matter in the long run. But you can call it shady if you want, it has nothing to do with the above scenario of buying a game only to have extra content being hidden behind a price tag after purchase. This is upfront and clear.

It's basically $20 for an extra race, better mount, and exp bonus. That's essentially what we call a cash shop.
Box price + subscription fee + cash shop = shady fucking cashgrab. All these new WoW clones are the same - they care more about siphoning as much $ from you than they do about creating a quality game.
This is like a huge red flag. Anyone who felt like they made a quality game wouldn't tarnish it with these kinds of awful business practices.
This shit will be free to play within a year.
