You don't need to be rewarded for playing games. Playing games is the reward.

With certain games that's true. Coming from a generation where playing games was always its own reward I can agree with that up to a certain point. Take The Witcher 3 for example, playing that game is its own reward because it's such a stunning experience from the gameplay to the main to story and even the small side stories, there was always something new to discover and be rewarded with BUT a game like Apex is very different in that regard.
There is no story, there is nothing new to discover. there is just drop in, fight, survive, maybe win and level up. The incentive to level up was Apex packs and Legend Tokens but if you're like me and dropped money to buy the two legends then one part of the incentive for progression (The legend tokens) now becomes meaningless and then eventually the other part of the progression (Apex PAcks) gets taken away completely leaving you with a very unrewarding experience in leveling up which means zero incentive for any further progression and when progression is really all the game has to offer to keep people playing then taking away the incentive for said progression leaves people feeling even more like thier time isn't being rewarded.
I bought the starters pack, the founders pack, have dropped money on coins and bought both legends. By this point I've speant over what you would spend on a triple A game's standard price point and I don't regret it at all because I had plans to spend literally hundreds of hours playing Apex BUT when you make it to lvl100 everything does feel like it drops off and you don't really feel like spending time/money on the game anymore because of that.
I used to get home from work an want to hop straight on Apex with my buds but after reaching level 100 I find myself just shrugging Apex off and finding something else to play because I know there's no point in me leveling up anymore because I get nothing for it. 71,400 Legend Tokens is what I have right now and the only thing leveling up is going to do is get me more of the meaningless currency I can't use.
