    I pretty much just assume “Free To Play” games are full of microtransactions, is that wrong?

      Yes, there are good games that are just totally free. I’ve enjoyed the hell out of both ΔV: Rings of Saturn and South Scrimshaw lately. Both offer things you can purchase, but you get the full experience without them.

          I thought I heard once that the demo is just the full version, but you can just also buy it to support the devs? That might be outdated or just wrong information though.

        Yeah, the question for me is “are they shoving those things you can purchase down your throat every 2 minutes?” because I find that disgusting.

      F2P with microtransactions isn’t inherently bad. Legends of Runeterra is that way and is maybe the best-done F2P model I’ve ever seen.

      I have like 1000 hours in Warframe and only spent like 20$ on it. Even that wasn’t really necessarily. You can farm shit and easily make enough of the in game money for what you need selling it to other players.

      True, but there is nothing wrong with that really unless it’s a multiplayer game where you get unfair advantages. It’s hard to expect a f2p game to not have micro transactions.

          That’s so fucking stupid lmao. Crying about stuff that doesn’t even do anything but make you look different.

            I think you may have missed my initial reply where I stated specifically stated that I was not concerned about “stuff that makes you look different”.

        They’re all way too expensive though. I’d have bought way more if they were lower and enjoyed the game more for it.
