Halo Infinite

The free game model always has a grind factor so they entice players to pay for stuff. Rarely is there a feel of well paced progression which is a turn off for me. The latest battlefield games suffer from the same but are paid games. I miss the old pay for the season pass and you were guaranteed 4 new maps every 2-3 months and plenty of new vehicles and weapons. More and more publishers are doing this live service model with long grinds to try to keep us playing the game longer just to unlock a skin or weapon we may not want etc... without updating the game with meaningful content for everyone. Very scummy. Halo would've been better as a paid game with paid dlc and worthwhile content added to all its fans.
