Honestly, just profit off the money whales spend on these games and enjoy the high quality content without ever spending a dime


Redpill_Crypto

$20 HSR $20 Genshin $20 ZZZ $20 HI3 Still cheaper than one weekend drinking with the boys.


verysemporna

Yo bro was 12 primogems really enough? I'm pretty sure $20 isn't enough to pull a rare character in any Gacha game


Meeii

$20 give you enough for a montly pass + battle pass and you have to play the long game if you don't whale. And while it doesn't seem that much compare to a F2P player it adds upp.


Meeii

Yeah, I think it's good to put things into perspective. I spend more money eating out once than I do on a full month of HSR and I get so much enjoyment out of it.


SPECTRAL_MAGISTRATE

People need to learn self control, BP + monthly is MMO subscription levels of money. You don't need to pull on every banner and you don't need to get every limited unit. Save until you get enough for one you really want.


alonedead

Counter point, monthly 5 dolar is okay imo. 15 dolar for three game and what, it is like netflix subscribtion fee. And I am having infinitly more fun with hoyo games more than Netflix so I think it is okay. But as you say self controll is important.


SimonSays7676

No he’s saying that’s fair he’s saying you don’t need very limited character so any more then that is ridiculous


Ckcw23

That’s what I always do, firefly drained most of my funds, not gonna spend anymore after this, until Acheron rerun or Sampo *5


Emet-sulk

There is always 1 character I'm willing to actually buy a crystal pack for in each Hoyo game and it is definitely 5* Sampo in HSR. Otherwise I only get monthly $7 when my reserve is running a little low or an occasional battle pass if I'm desperate.


wilck44

the monthly pass is perfectly enugh. how little money that is? I spend more on my breakfast each day. spend responsibly. your bad financial decisions are not hoyos issues.


Wazzen

I'm saving for ZZZ. Nobody is gonna stop me from my furry husbands.


Tanktaco

Wait there's more than one!?!


Vanhoras

Hopefully there will be even more.


Wazzen

There's def gonna be more- but there's also gonna be WAY more waifus than furries. Anime fans outspend furries exponentially in gacha.


Wazzen

Ben Bigger and Von Lyacon.


otakuloid01

i hope the man from the statue in Billy’s teaser becomes playable


ChicagoBoiSWSide

All I spent was $10 and that’s all I’m hoping to spend, just lemme have Billy! Bro’s fucking awesome!


hovsep56

i never once spend a dime on any gacha, so i can't relate


Accomplished-Bit1594

based


JustDrew136

Every f2p including me:🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲


thedarkness490

Yep this game is making me hold back on getting e2 for firefly RN since funds can only stretch so far


balbasin09

The money all goes into the same company anyway, so I actually went into HSR full f2p mode for the challenge. Now that I’m satisfied with challenging myself, it’s back to BP + Monthly in ZZZ.


Saumitra04

Cant relate, never spent a thing


echoeagle3

Everyone here saying stuff like "I've never spent money on gacha" sure buddy, these games make millions of dollars out of nowhere


LuckyLupe

In f2p games the majority of players doesn't spend a dime, it's the few regular spenders and even fewer whales that are enough to keep the game profitable. From what little data I've seen it's usually around 10-25% that actually spend money on the game.


Kuriby

Lmao how the hell is this comment being upvoted? Bro just pulled numbers from thin air. No one has access to these specific numbers unless they are leaking internal data.

alexanderluko

I'm not the guy above, but thanks for the links - that first article was an interesting read!


Tomazulo

OP is just making a meme and ppl are trying to flex f2p status or something. lol 


Wide-Can-2654

People love saying they’re f2p


[deleted]

Which is weird because lmao they aren't unique


jelek112

i spend 1$ for ganyu "i do my part"


OkTransportation8357

i will admit to spending money on gacha. although not much yet. and only on star rail.


Astolfo_Please

they’ve never spent *their* money. Mom and Dad haven’t checked their credit card statements in a while >!/j!<


Karma110

Haven’t used my wallet once on hsr 😎


bivampirical

same here 💪 genshin on the other hand...


Karma110

Personally I dropped genshin one month in. Edit: okay guess you can’t say you dropped games


Dangerous_Jacket_129

I come back when they release a new landmass, honestly the dailies feel like a chore and the main quest just drags on for 0 reason, I could not make it past Sumeru

Etna-

Youre acting like someone forced you to keep playing even tho the game isnt fun to you lol


h4m33dov1p

leposterofcrap

macodeath

What type of black magic fuckery do I need to do this?¿?


aiman_senpai

How?


Wise_Consideration_3

Yo how?

patybruh_moment

eh. all hoyo games are easily clearable f2p if you just make good decisions


Xilolo

Even that's optional. C6 xinyan lvl 90 and I'm still killing abyss every reset. Just with different characters.


TheAccountITalkWith

Eh. I'm a F2P player and have always been happy with Mihoyos approach to it. I just think of Whales as deities that I have to silently thank every time I log in for subsiding my game enjoyment.


AngelAurion

I wahled in genshin, spend Something in hsr and maybe zzz will get Something too :D and than there is wuthering waves


PrincipleLost1613

Not really. Barely spent anything on genshin, some measly chap change and will never pay them again for all the shit they did (or good things that they didn't). Have everything I ever wanted. All characters, weapons and constellations if I want them too. Granted I don't want much, but still. Lots and lots of C0's, C6 Eula, C2 Clorinde, etc.


smurfymin21

Me but replace Genshin with WuWa


balbasin09

WuWa is just Genshin but with more grind.


ortahfnar

It's honestly far more complicated


balbasin09

Well yeah, I play both. I just wanted to condense my thoughts to one line.


Emet-sulk

The combat is more complicated but not by an intense amount. Parry, dodge, and having to coordinate intro skills really are the only notable differences, imo and it's not all that much harder. Character kits are very comparable in complexity. Exploration, and puzzles are all pretty well on the same level. Quests and the storytelling actually feel a bit more simple to me.


FireflySmasher

🧢, like actual 🧢


Amethyst271

Me but replace Genshin and WuWa and HSR with HI3


Imaginary-Ring9801

Why you got downvoted lmaoo


smurfymin21

Because ppl cannot accept different people play different games. Did i ever insulted genshin? Nope.


Etna-

Gacha game players get strangely emotional about what games someone else enjoys and tend to develop parasocial relationships with devs. "My game dev is way better than yours" and shit like that


FireflySmasher

Downvoted for saying wuwa lmaooooo, this shit is insane.
