Free to play revenue up 50%

The irony.

Free to play is a misnomer.  Its a disguise for transactions that will often cost the consumer more money in  the end.

Its actually a very dishonest title for the method of delivery.

 

Have you ever TRIED a F2P game?

Why is it ironic? People aren't forced to pay a monthly subscription for a game but instead have the OPTION to buy in game items with real life money. Some people like this method better and are even willing to spend even more money than the monthly subscription because they want to support the developer.

I know from experience by playing games like BF Heroes and League of Legends. I sometimes spent close to 30$ a month on both games, and had it never been F2P but instead pay 15$ for a monthly subscription, I would have never even bother to try the game.
