Always a painful experience watching something you paid money for transition into a free experience, but it can sometimes pay off as the population grows bigger than it ever did previously. Plus, game devs frequently give out nice rewards or flair or whatever that you get to flaunt. Some of my more notable inclusions in that list includes...

Star Wars: The Old Republic - they gave a bunch of cool stuff to people who bought the game, including a sweet Founder title

PUBG - no title, but they did give a cool black leather outfit

Overwatch - no rewards to speak of that I'm aware of, just the ability to use OW1 skins and icons

Destiny 2 - I wanna say that started out paid and went free, but it's been so long since I played it, I don't remember for sure

Anyway, I'm curious to hear other entries in the list and any consolation prizes they gave.
