    It was free in an open beta, and hardly anyone took the opportunity to play it then. Chances are they burn through more money than they make by making it free to play. I’d happily pay $40 if that same game had split-screen, private servers, and LAN deathmatch, but no one makes that kind of game anymore.

      Idk, my point still stands. Ofc I could try it during open beta (if I knew), but then it still cost $40 which is ridiculous, because all the microtransactions were still there (if I’m not mistaken) so it felt like f2p, played like it, but stil cost 40 bucks. Lol, nope.
