It's fine that you don't trust that it won't change. That's probably a good thing overall to have that skepticism.
This is my first real experiment with designing a free game that isn't just a free flash game with zero monetization that I just put out there and let millions of people play without getting any income for it (what I used to do 15+ years ago...basically just gave a lot of free money to flash game websites that did have ads).
I've worked on a F2P game before at a video game company and it did all those terrible tricks and I didn't feel to happy working on it, was always hoping we'd get a new client for more interesting and fun games, but it never ended up happening before they had to do major layoffs.
I'm not claiming I won't ever do something that you personally won't like, this is mainly just what I'm thinking now. But I'm hoping that being less obnoxious will earn me some more good will than trying to squeeze every last dime out of players like big companies do. I'm just one guy making games outside of my day job, here.
