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.
