Great MMORPG F2P?

In fact, he's not just willing to do it, he loves it. This is someone who wants every advantage money can buy to compete with the other folks. This is someone who buys every cosmetic item a game has to offer, precisely so that you, the other players, will see it and know that he's got what you don't have. He is the ultimate 'whale', buying all sorts of frivolous crap because frankly, he can, and I'm sure F2P shops love him for it.

But here's the truth of it - the fact that he can throw money at a game and have an advantage in it, or even just rub that money in my face while playing (with his ultra-shiny beam gun of super-sparkly zappiness that may functionally work the same as my dull grey pistol) makes those games suck for me.
This is a citation from an article. Not my own words, but they show good what I mean.

"I don't want my gaming to be about highlighting life's financial inequity. I damn well live that all day long in my normal life. I don't want my gaming success impaired by my reasonable income and a realistic life balance of spending on necessities vs recreation. I'm a competitive completion-centric gamer, and when I play something, I want to do it well and thoroughly. The ordinary nature of my normal life shouldn't be hampering my gameplay!"

Cosmetics and convenience is as pay to win as stats items. People care for looks or easiness so much that they're willing to either fork out alot of money for it or to work for long hours, days, weeks or even months to get those things. Exactly like for stat items. Pay2Win don't have to mean "winning" in some kind of direct combat or structured ranking.

By that in MMORPGs practically all microtransactions are p2w for me.

I know. That was weird! Especially for responses to a 6 hour old comment.
