there's no "king" since it's all subjective.
some might say genshin, Others might say LoL, or candy crush. We have no idea what type of games you like.

Fortnite is an entirely new breed of animal that only became so due to the brilliance of its core gameplay.
Most of the top played F2P games are excellent. Cream generally rises to the top.

Most probably Dota 2, the amount of gaming time + free items and cosmetic that I have gotten over the years, it really feels like a robbery at this point.

Warframe. You can play it for years, earn premium currency in the game itself, and there is a ton of content. I also think all Mihoyo games are great if you go in with the mindset that you're never going to spend any money on them. All story content in Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, and now Zenless Zone Zero can be played through as a free to play player.

100% correct. So much to do. All is interesting, and the structure is in a way where you don’t need to spend money but when you do it doesn’t feel like a scam.

Warframe has sexy robots and cyborgs, not anime girls who all look underage.

Skill ceiling is too high. I’ve got 1300 hours in that game and I’m still dogshit.

Idk man. It’s a unique skill set but not high. You just have to spend time in practice learning the movement options pros do.Skill ceiling is too high. I’ve got 1300 hours in that game and I’m still dogshit.
It’s kind of like fighting games. You need to hit the lab.
A game with a dumb high skill ceiling is StarCraft brood war or age of empires 2 or even dota 2.

Nah dude I’d rather just complain and pretend that the problem isn’t my skill it’s just impossible. Let me live in my fantasy world where I never have to git gud.

-Has never received a dodgy sequel, looking at you Overwatch
-Not only has the graphics been completely overhauled but the gameplay also continues to evolve
-It also has a ton of different game modes

NGU Idle is good if you like idlers and consider them to be games.
In EU4, they say the tutorial is 1444 hours long. Accurate meme.

if you mean, gaas, Apex is the best action game imo. DOTA2 is a great strategy game.

All heros available to everyone (no grinding for a new one or some other shit, day one everyone has access
Get lots of stuff from playing for free. Can sell most of that stuff on the market place even if it's a small amount of change.
If you decide to buy cosmics you have valve ones and community made ones where the non employee gets the money and valve takes a cut.
You don't need to pay a single penny and the game will be fully available to every single person. It is truly f2p and not having grinds to keep shit from easy access

Yeah overall Fortnite is still king of ftp games unless you just really hate pvp. But there are a ton of options out there these days for all tastes, and as long as you have some self control you can get away with paying nothing or small reasonable amounts for things that matter to you.

Warframe without a single doubt, it has over a decade of content, new content consistently, premium currency can all be earned in game, Warframes themselves look dope, excellent music, lore is batshit crazy. Yeah its the king and there is zero doubt.
Path of Exile is also fantastic.

How are you liking S3? I haven't played since ranked turned into Terminal Attack. Hoping they get their **** together for S4.
Been playing a lot of Valorant and I 100% think The Finals is the better game.

So I booted up Warframe on the PS5. Man, that store really is stupid with how it kept trying to make me download the PS4 version.
Game looks and plays as great as I remember. But holy shit did I forget what the fuck I’m doing in my ship. The make it so slammed hard to come back to games like this and Destiny, once your forgot what you’re supposed to do.

Nope. Destiny 2 is not free to play. It's free to stare.

Hard to really say to be honest. They all have some shit embedded in them that I don't like. Probably say THE FINALS for recently released ones I guess. At least the gameplay is fun.
