It seems some time ago, Team Fortress 2 was sold as a paid game, but now it’s available for free. There might still be in-game purchases, and your friend who bought it recently might have switched to a free-to-play version.
It was once a paid-to-play title you purchased individually or included in an orange box; now it's free. You can still buy hats, community-made goods, weapons, and more.
In Dota 2, everything is just cosmetic, but you can still discover items in Team Fortress 2.
