You do understand the systems you are talking about right? That actual power comes from GEMS, not gear. That entire advancement systems at endgame are 100% locked behind purchases, and LARGE purchases? That the visuals of the gear is tied to those systems, so to upgrade from questing greens to mythic raid gear you HAVE to pay?
Im honestly stunned at the number of people still pretending this system on DI isnt 100% pure P2W with no way to advance your character without spending large sums of money. Just check out a few FACT BASED youtube videos on it, not the over dramatic clickbait shit, but players actual 1 to 1 comparison of F2P vs P2W players.
