Purchasing beauty products
Hello there, I got this as a school assignment and I thought I would get the most responses here. It is about spending money on things that don't give you any advantage in free games. Best example of this would be cosmetic items in Dota 2, I think a lot of people here play the game and know how it works, but I will explain it anyway. The game is fully playable for free, but you can buy items that alter your hero's looks/responses/animations for real money, but grant no tactical advantage over the enemy. The question is, do you spend money on cosmetic items, and if you do, how much do you spend on it monthly? I personally play Dota 2 regularly and I also buy items, usually when it's on sale in the Steam store or I get a great deal in the market, though sometimes I buy more expensive stuff, like the new Arcana for example, but it never goes over 25€/month. How about you?
I wouldn't spend unless it was for a couple of suits I really enjoyed. I'd keep purchases to about $40 or the game's price if I bought it. If I was deeply invested, I'd buy them regardless of my preference to back the developer. It feels right. Unless the FTP game was already making a lot of money. Then I'd be fine without any gear since they've earned their income.
