I'm not confusing the two at all. https://www.howtogeek.com/771884/what-is-a-pay-to-win-game/

Sad to hear about Deep Rock Galactic. Never appealed to me with the cartoon graphics, but I always heard how it was such a good example of a model and how they'd add their seasonal rewards simply into the regular loot / rewards, making them easily accessible for those who missed it.

Its the same mechanic you describe above.

If you miss it in the free battlepass, it comes back later in a random chance per mission to get a single drop.

You're arguing in bad faith by praising DRG for using the exact same system Warframe uses.

No? In WF you can only get them through Nightwave, you are not getting them through regular gameplay. You have to explicitly do Nightwave, whether you want to or not. Otherwise you'll not get the rewards and they'll pile up more and more the longer you are not doing it.

You're projecting. But thanks for outing yourself already, that saves us both time.
