As a f2p, this game is great. Short, sweet matches. Excellent cast of characters, balancing issues aside. Fun game modes. Perhaps the best part about the gameplay is that it isnt all about headshots.
Sadly, this game hurts from constant power level mismatches. A level 1 character can go up against a level 7 character, which is a difference in power that is hard to overcome without outright losing the game. The connectivity is also spotty, so u'll have to fight lag too. I suspect that the server tick rate is low because I've often found myself dying from behind cover.
Then, we get to the pricing. Perhaps the easiest buy to justify is the premium pass, but you have to get that every season instead of a one-time pay. The skins are way too expensive and they aren't particularly compelling, either.
i recommend just playing this for free.
