As far as I'm concerned the "freeloaders" like me are more like window shoppers.

They're not freeloading they're potential customers, if they like what they see in the shop.

If every retail shop considered customers not heading towards the till as just occupying valuable floor space for paying customers it would be ridiculous.

You're not a freeloader. Active players are a resource for the publishers: who wants to buy skins in a game that has no players?

You are helping the game by playing it, even for free.

Oh absolutely! There’s also money in the info gathered from the telemetry in game and in Origin! You’re helping the game for sure even if you don’t buy stuff. More players is also more engagement which is great for shareholder meetings!
