In college I would pirate everything and think paying for in game items was stupid. Now I will happily spend $1-5 for a few hours of fun in a well balanced game, e.g. hearthstone. But when I tried to get into Genshin Impact I quickly gave up after realizing I would have to spend at least $50 if not hundreds to roll a good team, or just stick with a completely f2p grind (which I don’t have time for anymore).

Isn't Hearthstone one of the most spendy games, though? I haven't touched it in a few years, but back then, if you wanted to have a deck with any sort of competitiveness, you'd have to spend €50-100 or more on packs every extension (2x/year).
