Ugh, while I agree games have too much monetization nowadays, please don't give TF2 a free pass. It paved the way for so much of what we see today.

100% agree, that's why I said "even more" aggressive monetisation. It's only less in comparison now, but it did indeed do a lot of the work paving the way, although CS probably did even more when it comes to Valve properties.
