Much the same here. I'm usually generally free-to-play but if I get really invested I might throw $5-10, 20 if I'm particularly spicy, at it every now and then. More if it's really something I'm into and that affects gameplay with my gaming group.
Like. Helldivers for example I've bought a few of the expansion packs to play with my friends, I think they're like the equivalent of $15-25 dollars each? (I forget it's been a while, I've been playing other games at the moment, I just know I have to buy bundles of the cash currency to get the game packs). I am more likely to spend money on stuff that affects gameplay than I am to spend it on purely cosmetic stuff, if that makes sense? Nexon kind of spoiled cosmetics for me way back in the day; used to be addicted to maplestory in highschool.
Um more specifically to FR? I think I've bought $15-20 worth of gems at least once a year. As a treat.
