Good list. Covering many different categories. Have found every game I thought of. I like that the roguelikes listed are the actual, "classic" roguelikes. What I don't like: inclusion of the games that cost money to play (via in-game purchases). These should be at least marked as such, pretending they are free is not OK.
Back when I created this list, I had the mindset that if I did include a game with the a Free to Play monetary model, it would only be eligible if it was absolutely not Pay to Win, and if it was possible to have a lot of fun without and be on a fully equal playing field spending a dime.
Looking over the list again, I think you're right in that a couple titles (runescape, eledivin, and argueably EVE online) really don't meet that criteria.
However, I think others such as CS:GO, TF2, and War Thunder still deserve a spot on the list, as you're still experiencing the full game with no disadvantage without spending anything.
But I will remove those titles and put Free To Play in the description of the others.
