You're absolutely right, this is bullshit and google should do something about curving this problem. I also stay away from the freemium model games because I hate "pay to win" scenarios, it just ruins the game for me. I would rather pay the 2 bucks or whatever the cost (under 5 bucks) to buy a game out right and support a well made game rather then get it free and then pay to upgrade shit. Fuck that noise.

I absolutely hate this about the Play store! Defeats the whole purpose of the rating system, and apps that ask me to rate 5 stars get a 1 from me.
