That would probably make me less likely to play it, because then there'd be even more MTX crap. I'm just not interested at any price.

Sure, but it won't cost me anything to try at that point, and if it sucks, so be it.

I guess.

But those types of games tend to be manipulative and giant wastes of time. I pretty much just avoid F2P games as a general rule, because if they don't think their game is worth charging money for, neither do I. The likelihood that a F2P game is worth my time is very low, so I don't bother playing them.
