Frequently asked questions
Are free-to-play MMORPGs pay-to-win?
It varies a lot. Check the Pricing section on each game page, which flags microtransactions, gacha and ads, and read player reviews for how it feels in practice.
What is the difference between free-to-play and freemium?
Free-to-play games are fully playable for free with optional purchases. Freemium games give a free tier but keep some content or progression behind a membership.
