However, spending 40€ a month or however much, which I see as a modest sum of money, in your second season, is a little silly.
I made sure I played the game for a good 3 or 4 months before I spent a penny, because it's quite easy to get sucked into the game initially and lose interest.
I have plenty of friends who joined at the same time as me, and quit around level 4 etc. so all the money they invested went to waste.
There's plenty more things that can provide you with better entertainment for 40€ a month.
I remember when I was younger, I had to be the best at every FPS out there.
I spent hundreds of hours making sure I was in the top 1% of rankings in the world, I had to be max level, and prided myself on making a name for myself, in a bloody virtual world.
And now I look back and think... Has doing that really got me anywhere, apart from satiate my pride.
