    Understandable but I would rather pay for the game where I can unlock shit by playing the game and not have any ingame purchases than a free game with cosmetics and skins and stuff I have to pay for. Even if it’s online. I would even pay monthly (like WoW) as long as there are no ingame purchases

      I would too. But charging upfront for a multiplayer game is pretty much a recipe for disaster these days. Subscription model I can’t imagine would be popular either. It’s better to eliminate barriers to entry in a game that relies on a big player pool, game pass helps a bit but not much.
