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.

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.
