I'm ruining friendships by doing this, but idc. If a game is "Free to Play" but features a bunch of "Optional purchases." That's an immediate NO from me.
So many times this cycle has gone "Free to Play" but the game is only meaningfully playable and fun if you invest ??? money into it.
That's a NO, and a BIG no.
Sometimes they switheroo on us, fucking fallguys, rocket league...
How a paid for game can just switch over like this is beyond me. Bonus points if they drop support for an OS as well like rocket league.
Honestly its fine(its not) just give me a full refund
How is Fall Guys only meaningful if you pay? You can literally only buy cosmetics, which I guess could be upsetting if you’re into fashion
I wasn't really talking about that part
I avoid F2P games like the plague now. Even if it was paid before. It's just not ever worth it. Even if it's not predatory now, the only way they can make money is through season passes, P2W mechanics, or ads/data selling. All unsustainable imo.
Only exception is Counter Strike. Went F2P but there are no P2W mechanics unless you count agent skins.
If all it takes to ruin a friendship is not playing a game with someone then I would reevaluate whether they were actually my friends and not just casual acquaintances.
That's called pay to win. Obvs free to play has to make money somehow, reputable companies accomplish this through cosmetics, etc. a bad actor here is Blizzard, who are selling skins for $20, battle passes for $10 , and they used to be free in OW 1 which many people paid for.
