I basically lived D2 from Beyond Light to right before Lightfall, loved my time with it but it was too costly with all the full-price expansions, season pass shit etc. just to be able to access a lot of the game. And I was weary of Bungie during that whole time and finally decided to boycott them and the game (and future ones unless they change).

I started playing Warframe about three months ago and absolutely love it, it's so nice never feel like I HAVE to pay to do anything. Very few things are locked behind having to pay with real money, I think only some skins are. The devs are also very communicative with the players and listen to the community way more than most others. It's not perfect of course, but the issues aren't shitty and greedy devs, it's mainly that some things aren't fully explained in game and stuff has changed so much over the years that many guides, tutorials and tips you find online don't really apply anymore. But I've got a good grasp of most of the game now and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon, currently at 550+ hours and there's so much more to do, and more on the way.

Is there a story in Warframe that I can finish in few dozens hours at most? Or do I need to spend 100s of hours to get a good grasp of what's happening.

It's a bit grindy, but you used to be able to get through the main story possibly in under a hundred hours.

Cool, thanks for the info!
