Just bought Designer a week ago. Wouldn't have touched it had it been a subscription. I love it so far but it will be my last purchase of any Affinity software if they move to a subscription.
Id contact them if i were you, asking for clarification and possibly a refund.
I've sent them an email, not too hopeful I'll get any information out of them about their pricing model going forward though.
Edit: They replied but they just gave a copy and pasted statement from the press release that Designer V2 users will own in perpetuity, nothing regarding future plans.
I too wrote to them. This is their reply
That's certainly a more hopeful response. Fingers crossed they keep to their word with V3 too.
