PSA: Free 2 Play games are not a charity

Companies do not open free games because they like you and want to do you a favor; it's a business model and they can make even more money than games that you have to buy.

So please stop repeating "You can't complain about X company because their game is free!", this means absolutely nothing, it's not a positive or negative point to make in any argument.

Saying a company is F2P is most definitely a negative remark. It's a horrible, horrible business model reserves for the sleaziest, greediest assholes that run the majority of this world, and it breeds games that we would have laughed at and thrown away 20 years ago. Now though, F2P and DLC are running rampant, and garbage-tier games are the new norm.

Just a horrible business philosophy, and I hope that people wake up soon and stop buying into the scam it is.

In an ideal situation, then everyone wins. Many players don't feel forced to play microtransactions while the company gets money for a free to play game that is open to everyone.
