I was okay with hats and cosmetics in TF2. Didn't play CS:GO, but I'd be okay with that as well. It's just cosmetics and you can unlock every single one of them through playing or crafting. It had zero effect on the game play. When different weapons were added I found them to be refreshing and a new lease on life for the old game. It's stupid and silly but it was fun.

CS:GO cosmetics appear to be obtained by gambling with real money.

I put a few thousand hours into Dota 2 and never spent any money on it, didn't feel much pressure or any desire to since idc about cosmetics. I think it's great though, if a game is free and other people who care about visual skins subsidize it for you.
