I guess I just don't understand motivations in the F2P market. Like, I'm happy to pay a reasonable price for a game, but I have no interest in being nickeled and dimed -- I can't tell you how many games I've noped out on because of that shit. Like, if Factorio charged for cosmetic add-ons, that would just be ludicrous. Either you made a playable game for the price of entry, or you didn't.

I seriously need to find a grift to hook people in for monthly payments.
