Pay to win (P2W) is a term used to describe video games where players can buy benefits or progress for real money that significantly affects gameplay and gives them an advantage over players who don't spend money.
This usually refers to games with in-app purchases or microtransactions where players can purchase items, opportunities, or other benefits that help them play. It can be anything from cosmetic items that change the look of a character to powerful items or characters that change the balance of the game.
This monetization of games can be controversial because it can create "inequality" between players who are willing to spend money and those who play for free. Critics argue that this undermines the "fairness" of the game and may force players to spend more money than they planned.
