Console/desktop game I always separate from mobiles due to graphics quality, game features, etc; since most of these aren't F2P (goes without saying that these don't have that stupid energy system, endless iAPs, and extremely annoying 3rd party app ads). This said, I wouldn't even compare with mobile games that usually have the stupid F2P model. This is not to say that I don't like mobile games since unlike console/desktop games, I can play mobile whenever and whenever I am without the need to setup or boot my computer, set up a screen and plugin my bulky game system.

Since this is originally bout respawnables, I'd say yes; it consistently introduce new real money items(which is acceptable since its developers need to earn... You won't do things for everybody without getting paid since we need to earn and spend for our daily needs), yes influx of new items and weapons change how the game plays, and yes these give advantage to those that purchase these (as they should). However, to be fair ith respawnables; while it generally is a F2P game, I give credit for it not making use of the typical energy system that limits how long I play the game unless I pay real cash, respawnables while selling real money stuff don't sell crates that most probably wont give you your money's worth much more duplicated of stuff you already have. These on top of significantly lower file size, lower hardware requirements, and shorter matches I consider a plus. While a lot of pay2win players play respawnables (like all other games that offer premium stuff), I won't say that real player skill doesn't do much. Try playing more respawnable games, then you'll get the chance to play with players that while using "crappy" stuff like shotgun, rookie machine gun, etc; you'll see them slaughtering the typical skill-less minigun/battleram/other real money weapon users; which in turn, proves that while the so-called "OP" weapons make a difference, real skills still determine whether a player excel at playing respawnables or not. And yes, minigun as one of a lot of players scream "OP" at cannot be bought by real cash.

What I'm trying to say is not because a game consistently offer real cash "OP" weapons means it doesn't require real skills. Selling permanent ingame stuff that you see and is certain to get when you pay for it isnt always a bad thing.
