These games ere the effin worst. I cant people play this tripe.

I think its better to spend 5 bucks on a full product then keep walking into incentives to buy shit, totally ruins the experience.

Is there anything that doesnt suck?

Why do people play and pay for this?

Devs make games F2P to help have a large playerbase and a small percentage of people who will spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on their product.  F2P (when done right) is best for low key multiplayer games (aka anything not named World of Warcraft, Call of Duty, Halo or Battlefield) that would have barely any users if they charged money for it.

Best F2P games right now are Team Fortress 2, Tribes: Ascend and League of Legends (the later 2 have exorbitant cash shop prices, though)

I'm sure there are some good F2P MMOs, but I don't pay attention to that genre.

No, I'd rather not be associated with poors who cant afford to buy the game in the first place.
