Funny thing is, valve invented the battlepass, and now that almost everyone else is using it, they're getting rid of it.

Valve also "invented" the Free to Play model with loot boxes and showed on large scale how much money one can make with it, if I'm not mistaken.

with the difference being that they didn't lock any gameplay content behind payments. only cosmetics
