    Someone spent thousands of dollars? Or many users collectively spent thousands of dollars?

    I’m not sure which is more believable.

      Well, it is likely the same as with mobile gaming. A few whales spend thousands of dollarinos on a game because they just happen to be rich.

          Even then, they’re not likely spending as much as the rich fuckers. No matter how addicted you are, there’s only so much you could spend before you’re just out of money.

          There’s streamers to consider nowadays, too. Many live service competitive mobile games have streamers that get fed money from advertisers to fund their in-game purchases.
