I know it's been quite a while since I first made this post, and I appreciate all the feedback and input people have given on this matter. That is, as long as you weren't being toxic, and at least adding to the conversation.
However, I wanted to clarify a few things. I am absolutely not against supporting free-to-play games. For example, I've spent about $40+ on Realm Royale since it's release. And, just recently, I spent about $45 on Dauntless. The difference between what these games offered over Apex Legends is I knew exactly what I was paying for. Also, the pricing for most individual items in those games is reasonable.
I want to support Respawn, and Apex Legends. However, I'm not a gambler. And having to mostly spend money on the equivalent of a slot machine severely turns me away from wanting to give them anything. I didn't even purchase the Battle Pass because I was so disenchanted by their monetization system in this game...
