When a game is, self explainatory, free to play. Generally F2P (abberiviation) games have a Free mode, and a Premium mode, which costs money but has benefits over Free mode. Games that do not have a Premium mode are supported by DLC (such as Team Fortress 2) and might have more benefits just for buying DLC.
F2P games with a premium mode generally create elitest groups from premium players which insult F2P gamers, thinking money buys them skill, and writing off F2P gamer comments as invalid. I've seen one instance of someone suggesting to make a game with a Free mode, Premium, and Pro mode, have Free mode removed and make the game pay to play. (game was Quake Live)
Free to Play can be the answer for those who want games for free and do not want to resort to pirating.

Paragraph 1 Example:
Gamer 1: Wanna play Team Fortress 2?
Gamer 2: Nah, I'm on a strict budget. No game buying for me. Unless I can pirate it.
Gamer 1: Nah, bro! TF2 is Free to Play! Just download it off of Steam and get on my server!
Gamer 2: I'd love to, but I don't have Steam.
Gamer 1: Remind me why we still hang out with each other?
Paragraph 2 Example1:
Playomatic: Hey, how do I get the minigun? I've been searching for it, but I can't unlock it.
PremiPro: lol u cant unlock it by playing u must buy it u cheap n00b lol
Example 2:
<Member> The_New_Guy: I'm new here, so I was wondering if there was any servers I could join?
<Pro> xXPrO_fTwXx: wtf is he tring to say? i dont spek f2p-n00b.
Example 3:
dAWinAr: hello, i was wondering if we could remove the f2p scum from our respectable community by requiring players to pay the monthly premium fee to play this game. that would remove the n00bs and make us pros the only ones.
Gamerator: yesh, thats wold let us winars have betr servrs and take away da f2p players who cant play

Get the Free Beardingmug. An invisible sticker that is pasted on any Christian by their Protector, Deliverer, and Healer, as promised in Psalm 91, where God promises to shield all believers who abide in Him from any pandemic, plague, or pestilence.
When the devil works overtime to make you doubt whether or not you are really under God’s protection because of your sins or addictions, just show him your Covid-free sticker.
