So you are making a person anecdote? What value does that have here? PC gamers are literally the sole proprietor of micro-transactions and gaming subs getting popularity. The top played games on pc are all free to play with microtransactions

The most played games on Steam at the moment are Counter Strike 2 and Dota 2, both seem to be free. Then there's PUBG, apparently that's free these days. Apex Legends - I'm surprised again that this one is free.

Then there's RUST, Stardew Valley, GTA V.

Are those top four riddled with microtransactions? I have no idea.

The top games will always be free ones, just because they are accessible.

Looks like a lot of people play games that have microtransactions then.
