In total, how much have you paid for microtransactions?

I've paid about $30 overall. I buy the "starter pack" for most gacha games, and that's about it, aside from sales here and there.

0€

Over 1500 dollars on league of legends
End me

around 5 euros and maybe more soon because I really want to buy the jungle inferno pass

Does DLC count as a microtransaction?

Probably over 2 grand over the last 13 years or so? Granado Espada and S4 League were my biggest sinks.

Around a $1000 across multiple games. Most of it (~$650) on a mobile game called Chaos Chronicle that was shut down a couple of months ago.

Probably around 2k over the years. After years of WoW subs I can justify it if I'm not paying monthly/at all for a game. It's not like I have a cute girl to spend money on.

$25 on Path of Exile storage tabs. $30 for the full version of Pokemon Picross. $25 for the Mario Golf DLC back when that was a thing. And I bought a TF2 key once. Not too bad.

30$ in lol.
3 years ago back when i was still seriously in to the game.

probably only like $100 or so, 20 bucks to blizzard for BRM in hearthstone and the rest on rocket league keys. I generally don't participate in microtransactions but I've played rocket league for over 1000 hours, crate items are all cosmetic, and I don't mind giving Psyonix extra money (as opposed to someone like EA)

0 in real money
Less than £5 in steam credit that I got from selling skins/hats/trading cards

Not a dime. I'm keeping my shekels Jew-chan

Oh i also got Season 3 Character pass in SFV.
Because it offered 9 bonus consumes on top of the 6 dlc characters and costumes for each

Maybe $100 in my lifetime across various gachas and MMOs

I do it very very rarely, like once a year if that, and don't even begin to consider it until I've been playing a game for a long time already

Hundreds easily but probably not a thousand

But i dont consider that a micro transaction more like buying an expansion because it was 30$

>$30 for the full version of Pokemon Picross

Not sure if I'd count buying a full game at normal price after playing a free trial a microtransaction

What about crowd funding?
Back in Path of Exiles early closed beta I tossed like 400 bucks down

Around $150 into the one gacha game I ever made the mistake of picking up over the course of the 3 years or so I played it. It's still going but I recently managed to just quit at last and I'm never touching another one and I successfully avoided FGO. Could be worse I guess, and lesson learned. I now have tons of great vidya on not just PC and console (helped by finally upgrading those) but even on mobile I've got enough to keep me occupied for a long time and it's reminded me how fundamentally bullshit gacha always is and MT in general is even if they're "only cosmetic".

It really is gambling (and no surprise it comes from pachinko land) and I think it's inevitable it'll get moved on by governments. They're making a ton of money for now of course, just like unrestricted gambling does. The best defense is to keep away from it in the first place.

That's fair. I just thought of it as you having to buy $30 worth of the currency to unlock unlimited.

Crowdfunding is not microtransactions or gacha you fucking retard. Stop genericizing bad stuff, just because one thing is bad doesn't mean it can automatically be used as a label for fucking everything. They're completely different concepts.

More than USD 100 in TF2, no regrets. I have some fun hats, many strange weapowns and I got an unsual in one crate.

I once bought a csgo crate key, with trading cards money.

Once

>S4
at least it was a good game

Yeah, I wasn't counting that in my list at all either because that's just "demo+full version/expansion packs" in another format. It mainly exists to get around retarded mobile and game app store policies and limitations, crapple for example doesn't even allow "demo" versions at all IIRC. So instead devs have to release a "free" version then have the full deal and any later expansions be In App Purchases. It's an irritating workaround but that's all it is, it's not MT it's one-time-only and no-limits-after. It's not "consumable".

dunno how to think of it in free games. like, if it's a good game that get more then 20 hours off? sort of feel that maybe tossing $5-10 in mt their way is like a tip jar. like, i'm getting solid playtime out of it, would have spend 10bux on a full version if there was one anyway ya know?

course have to not get suckered into more. that is the trick. they try hard to hook and be like "this RARE starter is SUCH A GOOD DEAL" but its still fucking shekels4pixels. conman please
