Played the game, didn't have the feeling that I absolutely need to pay money to have fun, so payed 15$ to show my appreciation to a good game.

$5, brought me some character slots. I have more Zen sitting in my PW account, but I won't be trading it over to NW until I feel I will actually be getting value for the money I spend in the Z-Store. Right now I think their prices need some tweaking.
Bought all 3 founders packs, so that's $280. Then I bought Zen when the bonus sale was on, spent another 40$ or so. Out of all that, in-game I've only bought 1 extra companion slot with the zen. I'm level 56 as of typing this, and plan to do all my spending when I hit level cap of 60 in a day or two & really get a feel for what the end game is etc..
Tip: Don't buy anything until level 60 & only buy Zen & Zen store items during a sale/discount & trade Zen/AD when the market clearly favors one exchange over the other.

$60 for founder pack, and since I multiplied that 600k investment to several milions now I won't spend any more. And the game is worth $60.
About $500 I think.
All packs, some twice. Rest invested into Zen and converted to an 8-digit-AD-count while the exchange rate was 500. I think of it as an investment for the future (or "lifetime sub"), so I never have to pay for this game again.
Well, $350 for the founder packs (was in Euro, so a bit more expensive), $10 for a bag, $40 on keys (this one I regret), whatever it was for more bank space and companion slots, $5 on two more character slots, and about $400 on Zen when they were discounted and which I exchanged to ADs when the rate was at 500:1. I haven't touched those and will exchange them back when the rate is below 250:1.
Looks more than it felt. Didn't buy any other "fun" stuff in March and April, so it's all right budget-wise.
If this disgusts you, I can imagine that you walk around in real life with a horrible disgusted look on your face because real life, is way worse than this video game. You must be the most disgusted person on the planet.
I love how people use these severe, dramatic overtones to describe how they feel about the cash shop on Neverwinter online... ****in hipsters.
I'm not disgusted by Neverwinter's cash shop. I'm disgusted by the Asian cash-grab cash shop system in general that has ruined the MMO genre. I'm sorry if that offends pathetic lowlifes like you who can't stand different opinions. If it's any comfort, I'm more disgusted by your type and your fanboy ilk than the cash shop.
I'll continue to be "disgusted" and if you don't like it, you can hop in front of traffic. In fact, go do it anyway.
I commend those of you that spent so much money to support the game.
Personally, I need to know that I will be invested in this game for more than 1 or 2 months for me to drop a penny. I played GW2 for 6 ish months, and including the box price I spent about 140-150 total. Maybe about 10 per month which is good IMO. Maybe one day i'll return to GW2, but for now its neverwinter/Mass effect 3...and if Defiance ever gives 50% off or goes free.

Nothing, although I did spend 1250 ZEN (1x bag, 2x keys as a gamble, the ZEN was "free" anyway). No clue where the ZEN came from to be honest, maybe because I once had a 1 year STO sub? The bag does come in handy though

As you can tell by my avatar title, the big pack. As for extra? I'll only give you a hint that i have been able to get all three jester's garb items from the bars you get from lockboxes.
I need help...
LOL!
$200 founders and $50 on Zen. More to come I'm sure

A little over $300. Opened a ton of boxes, brought a couple of bags and some bank space.
I'm sure I will spend more as new classes are released, maybe some more bags. I think I am done with those stupid lock boxes though mainly because I have what I want from them, however if new boxes come out I won't be buying keys unless the price of keys comes down.

prob $400 total, the hero pack and some zen. I will prob not spend anything else for awhile as I am set with AD and Zen.
I'm generally curious how much people have spent this early on into the OB release.
Me personally I've spent $60 on a founders pack.
What have YOU spent?
$200 for the game and then $50 for Xen. Which is about my limit based on what I see so far.
In fact, if they don't fix the AH filters so stuff starts selling and I can make some AD I'm gonna bail. I'm already seeing some alarming trends developing in this game like the hyper-active goobers that speed rush thru dungeons because of the blasted frigging damage meters... I can already see what the community in this game is gonna be like in 6 months. Who will stay and who won't.

I rather spend some more money in TERA ONLINE.

Alice L'ddell - Human GF

Looks more than it felt.
Won't spend money on zen until there's special offers on what I want or the prices come down.

HotN - $200
Guard - $60
Zen - $150
Start kit $20
Total - $430
Will likely spend some more, although I'm done with lockboxes at this point, RNG, she's a cruel heartless *****
375 runs in wow, no baron mount, not buying 375 keys for a glamor mount here.
