The bigger problem is that this game even had a battle pass and other monetization tactics at all.

Early Access games should never have a battle pass or cash item shop.

@RightHandOfIkaros @ylai Yeah, that article has the wrong takeaway from this.

The devs aren't heroes for removing the F2P elements. They never should have been there to begin with.

True, but a lot of people never listen to the fact that they fucked up and they should do something about it. That fact alone deserves some kudos.
