Do you make in-game purchases on mobile games?

[Shortie]

I only play two mobile games consistently at the moment and they are Monopoly Go and Farmville 3.

I purchase the season pass on Farmville 3 but that is about as far as I go with in-game purchases on a mobile game.

Do you make in-game purchases on mobile games?

Nope, they are made to bleed money from you. So I tend to avoid them.

I have bought texture packs and skins for Minecraft. But that's as far as I go with buying stuff for Mobile games. And I can use those same texture packs on any system that Bedrock Minecraft can be played.

I used to purchase Pokemon GO coins religiously when I had the money to do so, but I have more important things to worry about than games when it comes to money, so I haven't done so in quite a long time. The only other game I remember spending money on for in-game purchases was Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Links.

Yes, I do make in-game purchases, and it is basically on games where I feel a level of connection with. Some of the games, such as Top Eleven, Clash of Titans, and Elden Rings. Buying the resources on those games makes it fun for me.

I make in-game purchases on PC games. But on mobile games, I don't think I've spent anything. I usually play mobile games just a little bit. They're not my primary focus.

I rarely do. Mostly just to get rid of ads if they have an ad-free purchase. Otherwise, I play them 100% for free. (though it's extremely rare I even play mobile games)

 

[Nomad]

yes, I make purchases on mobile games sometimes. In the past, I used to play a lot of free games with micro transactions and used to spend a lot of money, but currently I am not playing a lot of free to play games, and I not spending much on micro transaction.

It was Pokémon Go that I spent so much money on. I haven't play for a long time now because responsibilities are coming up every day. I better use the money for a better thing than using it to play games.

 

[Alisa]

I used to make purchases on mobile games but I no longer do that.

I used to make purchases on mobile games but I no longer do that.

What changed? Did you stop playing the game, or did you make peace that you won't be competitive even when you play those games? I mean, for most of these mobile games, you must buy the resources if you truly want to compete.

 

[Milla]

Sometimes I do. But I haven’t made any purchases since a long time.

I've only made in game purchases in Pokemon Go and it's been a long time since I've done that. There were times where I couldn't get out and play as much so I bought some Poke Coins. Now I feel like the game is easier for those who can't get out as much, ever since the lockdowns happened the game has been more generous giving out items to those who don't go to Pokestops that often.

I would say this is one of the reasons a lot of people enjoy playing that game. The devs knew that making it difficult to get certain resources over a period might not be sustainable.
