    I miss the days where everything was unlockable by just playing the game…

    It’s so refreshing opening MW2 and and not having anything locked behind a paywall

      This is why I love The Finals so much these days. You get the benefits of a live service game (updates, bug fixes, frequent content drops, an active and receptive dev team, etc), but their monetization scheme is set up so that you can only spend money on cosmetics. Weapons, game modes, account progression, are all advanced by playing the game, without any monetary path to advancement, whatsoever.

      Besides, the game modes, gunplay, movement, and aesthetic in The Finals are all leaps and bounds better than anything COD has had to offer for years now.
