I have played damn near every F2P square Enix mobile game and every single one of them is P2W. Some are more F2P friendly than others but they all have P2W shit.

And if it's not p2w, it's a fucking slog. I played Brave Exvius years ago, and I remember having to put my game on an emulator running trash quests basically 24/7 for weeks because I had to use characters something like 1000 times for some kind of powerup unlock. Like, holy shit, dude.

1000 times. On a timed stamina system where it takes 5 minutes to get one stamina point, and all the fun quests cost like 20 or more.

Which, considering you could instantly refill stamina with monopoly money crystals... yeah, is still more or less pay to win.

Square Enix has earned absolutely no benefit of the doubt. Every single monetization scheme they've cone up with has taken the damn piss, and it's telling that the only games of theirs people seem to like are the ones that barely monetize, if at all.
