For me it's not about buying or not buying. I've bought both seasons passes and "some" loot crates in the past, more so to pay Respawn for the enjoyment I have had out of a F2P game.

The Iron Crown event didn't have to be free, but looking at the big picture, and the time limit on the event, it's nothing short of over the top. I know I don't have to buy, and I'm all in favour of truly rare loot, but 22 items that have to be bought to be able to have the opportunity to buy an axe for a further £35.00? I love the game, and Respawn as a dev, but I cannot defend this.

Limited time on being able to unlock stuff to keep it rare? Yep. Charge for skins? Yep, but less of the loot boxes and more of the buy what you want. I'm also in favour of not everybody being able to acquire "everything all the time". This keeps certain content rare and I get that. Some skins maybe locked behind a challenge unlock, but not a pay wall.

What makes this even worse are the game bugs and issues. They need addressing before any event like I.C. Why pay top dollar (awy to much imo) for items in a game that isn't running great for a lot of people. Again I have defended this in the past, putting faith in Respawn to "get it right" but my faith and patience is being eroded.

The timing and pricing of this event is a bit of a train wreck imo. I want Apex to succeed. I'm willing to buy future BP's and other content, if they can get the core game working without the code errors, and inconsistent lag/servers/hit detection. I already have money invested in Apex but I will not part with anymore cash now until the fundamentals are resolved.
