Probably.   From reading their forums, I think they had planned on
some free patches (to correct basic errors) and some larger expansions
called Books.

After the fiasco of releasing it basically broken and unfinished, I
think they have decided to release all Updates including the Books for
free for a year.

Why they rushed it out when it had been delayed previously is a
mystery.
