I still play a bit of FIFA, but I reserve it to my social time (even though I find that FIFA create a lot of tensions, while Mario Kart is funnier to play, and the level to be competent is lower).
The problem with most of IAP games are that they are in the same category than FIFA or FM. There is little backstory. While paying upfront for a game (on mobile, a dozen of great games exists, and you can play some of them during short period of time like Limbo...) create a sense of connection with the game, because you invest money in it, and you are ready to really invest time in it. On the opposite, IAP are games where the goal is to make you play as much as possible, to pay as much as possible.

So basically, Facebook (FB) is for socializing in real life. Since I am currently in exchange, It is useful to create parties and to invite people to them. It is also useful to talk with your friend on the other side of the earth (more than Whatsapp), to keep up to date with them. And it is also the best way to get into groups, to exchange ideas, or into the group of your university.
So basically, FB is my social life. Do I like that ? No. But would i have a social life without FB ? No. Most of the people here are seeing FB as the devil, but it helps me to invite to parties girls I want to hang out with or get invited to parties, and since everyone (or most of the people, more most of the people) are looking for raising their number of friends on Facebook, it is really useful to connect with new peoples. But, yes, I am invited to parties without FB, but not as much.
Also, for group projects, it is the closest thing to Slack for College students.
So as much as I hate FB, it is really useful, sadly.
