It was originally advertised as f2p, at some point they changed their minds and decided to charge for it, clearly it didn’t go well since people already associated it with free.
How does a f2p game cost $30?

Executive said, “Fuck it, we’re charging $30”. He thought people would pay that even though its main competitors were f2p.

So it’s not f2p then?

Ultimately, no. It was going to be at first but prior to release, it changed models and ultimately stayed at $30 until it died.

You know what f2p means to me? It means you can play the game for free but the experience is guaranteed to be miserable because you’re going to have relentless ads crammed down your throat for skins and other bullshit I couldn’t give a single fuck about, and no matter how much you pay it never stops.
So if it’s between that and just paying $30 for the game, I’ll take the $30 every time. I avoid f2p games like the plague.
