Well, as of right now, I've still never purchased anything with real money at Eververse. My intention to do so was simply to use my "right" to choose to do so. Many games these days are doing this, and many more to come will be doing it as it is a viable way for the developers and publishers to continue providing support, upgrades, updates, and new dlc (that they will also charge players for). They are supposed to make money. They have to make money. Current players, and potential players of such games, that are infuriated by the realities of games with continuing costs will need to find and play games that aren't involved in these practices. It may be a sad state of affairs . . . but it's true.
