It all depends on the game. I play one game most of the time and others when I am not playing that main game. For my main game I pay a sub and expacs and occasionally for something from the store I like. Mostly I just raid and chill with my friends.
But in other games it’s casual. I’m ok with some transactions if I am enjoying myself. If it hinders my progress or is unnecessary then I’m just bored. Like Genshin. Beautiful game but way to gotcha. Plus the game control is ass. Gamers want a combo or something more interactive to do attacks with. Elden Ring was ok with that. But there are several games that forget it’s an interactive medium.
But I digress. Games like RDR2 I have never paid beyond the base game. But I will throw down for a Fortnite skin every once in awhile because I like it. It’s not a linear “if the game is free I will micro” kind of discussion. It’s if the game hits me right I will do it. Like fuck Battlefront 1 and 2. Never ever with EA again. Their customer support is shitty too.
