Any free to play game. TF2 was mine, I spent stupid amounts of money on it as a kid because it had the addictive loot crate dark patterns. I don't play games like that anymore.
Overwatch was it for me. Loved the game for the first couple of years, then Blizzard did typical Blizzard things and it's a disgusting pile of micro (macro) transaction shit now. I hate the battle pass format so many games are trying to incorporate now.
I played ow a lot and I was pretty excited when ow2 was announced. Now I want overwatch 1 back. Overwatch 2 is just the first game but with a battle pass and a bunch of microtransactions. I stopped playing it.
Same with me. Made it even worse Thay I gave my son my overwatch account when we switched to 2 and it would've cost me a years salary to get them all back lol
It was a fun game, just wish it decoupled from the skins and hats.
Dude, I sank so many hours into TF2 in college. I would probably have graduated Summa if I had used that time for studying instead, but hey, I was fantastic at headshots with the sniper by the time I left.

Good habit to break friend!
