Agreed. Free to play is as bad, if not worse than when games had loot boxes in them. The f2p model has sucked all of the soul out of any game that has gone that route. It incentivizes players to maximize their playtime without giving out anything to show. Battlepasses have gotta be one of the laziest and most boring progression systems of all time, and it completely removes actual progression systems from a lot of games as well. The in game shop prices are so overpriced and bloated that anybody that actually spends money on that shit should be shamed.

I'm gonna be honest. The Free to Play model as a whole needs to rot in a hole. The monetization in all of these games are so overpriced and in your face that at that point I'd rather spend money on a full priced game. But they make way more money than a single $60 purchase ever would that its never going away. It's probably the main reason why so many multiplayer FPS games are so dogshit nowadays

Locking every single cosmetic item behind a battlepass or a shop. We used to unlock stuff by completing challenges or by purchasing them with some in game currency that you could earn by just playing the game.
