Depends if it's designed to be a game in the first place or just a cash grab. Not saying that the "hardcore" F2P games (Dota, CS, OW, LoL etc) don't have a absurdly priced skins and gambling mechanics but at least they weren't built specifically for maximising dark patterns and sometimes their community fights back over monetisation practices
