It's like a FPS game, if you pay you get a laser canon and an armor that only other laser canons can destroy, if you don't you get a pebble that you can throw at people
tho I like the ice cream analogy better, lets change to "pie" shall we?, they are handing out free pies, if you don't pay 100$ you get a pie made of shit and vomit, if you pay you get a pie made of chocolate
but hey! it's free, be happy god dammit, they have to make some money out of it, if you don't like don't play it
typical excuse of a F2P fanboy indeed, booo hooo poor companies, I cry for them, they are good honest people that work hard to deliver fun for free, we are ungrateful bastards that smother the fun out of everything
