I was looking at how disabled this game seems to be from a free to play point of view, aparently I cannot do anything?

I'm looking at this chart here and its got a long long list of grayed out functions of the game... Is this game worth my time if I dont want to push money into playing it?

Its like a free trial. You probably won't feel the limits when you are at lower levels and play < 1hr a day

Actually, I've been playing for a while now, and what people enjoyed the most was the leveling class quest story line, and you are in no way limited in it. You'll just level slower (25%, which I think is gay), but you'll still enjoy the game. WHen you hit high levels, try doing pvp and flashpoints ( 4 man group raids), see if you like the multiplayer content, and then choose if you want to stay after you finish the story line, or just be bitch and leave ;P
Personally, I tihnk this game is great. It let you try the multiplayer aspect, but every class quest ( which you can still do with other people) are accesible.

So... You can play part of the game.. just 25% slower exp?

What exaaactly am I limited from? It says things like sprint I cant have at all (its grayed out) but I know you can get it at level 15...

What else from that list is actually perm-grayed and what can I unlock later? I'm again just wondering if this is worth the time investment or if I should look elsewhere.

i would love to play this game but u can't even use high end gear without paying $$$ so don't see the point unless u want to do a sub
if thats the case why wouldn't people just play gw2 d3 or something else of the like
seriously $15 a month or whatever it is....that's insane..period

Yes you should play it, but you really should just get the sub. $15 a month is nothing, its like two less beers for the whole month going out. It is well worth it.

$15 a month is more then wow

Play it, do the entire story, and then see if you continue fak.
Also, you get end game gear by subsribing, since it's cheaper then paying like, a couple pvp match or operations a week. I suggest strongly to pay the subscription once you are 50

...Its exactly the same price as WoW. Plus I personally only pay $12 per month, and they give me $5+ in free stuff every month, so really I pay like $7 a month.

correct. only way wow is cheaper is if you some how recruit a friend a couple of times and just ride on free time for awhile. wow vet since day one. spirestone day one yo. Thank god i quit playing that game 2 days ago. its getting worse and worse, i thought it went downhill with wrath. * that's right wowfans come at me* wrath was garbage and if you liked it you obviously started during it.
