Can this game actually be played with out spending a dime?
Yes, you can play this game for free! However, it is very time consuming to do so and most people will pay for content instead of grinding the favor system for Turbine Points (TP) to pay for content.

Some quick math to confirm:

Currently there are 79 free to play quests in game. These quests provide 920 favor. That is enough favor to unlock Server favor up to the 4th tier which will give you 150 TP. Do this on every server and you get a total of 1050 TP. Free quests will also give enough favor to earn you 225 TP through per-character favor rewards. A F2P player gets 2 character slots on each server, so if you do this on every server you will get 3150 TP. Combine that with the 1050 we totaled earlier and you get 4200 TP, from grinding 100% free content. You can then use those TP to purchase Adventure Packs which you can then grind to earn more points.

Then of course there is the option of rerolling which can provide more TP and will only be limited by your willingness to keep rerolling.
