Same for me, never played any of the DLCs.
Overall is probably ESO, between the base game, couple of DLCs and ESO+ membership I must have easily spent £400+. Think I had ESO+ subscription running for almost a year after I stopped playing.
What is the most you have spent on a game?
- Thread starter something daft already!!

In a single purchase, Fable 3 collectors edition. I learnt my lesson big time on that one, I think RRP was around 150 squids at the time?
In terms of ongoing, WoW for sure... Thousands of squids.

Most I've spent on a single game was the original Turok for N64. One shop in town had it and it was £70 
I just had to have it because of teh gRafixs

I didn't realise there was already a thread on this question, sorry OP.
After I wrote my opening post on the other thread I was thinking, I have paid for DLC's, and even paid for friends DLC's too. The only subscription I've had though as been to PSN.
Some games these days I purposely don't play if they are designed to be a cash cow.

possibly EQ1 since I played for 7 years - so 7 x 12 x 12.99 month sub + all the xpac till Gates of Discord
Also games like Civ 6 and especially the Paradox games (City : Skylines etc) - the DLC costs on those soon add up (mind you I probably have more than my moneys worth on those)
I just balance it against other entertainments - for say £20 for example I could
Buy maybe 2 movies on bluray - maybe 4 hours entertainment
Go to the Cinema - probably 2 hours entertainment
Go to the pub - maybe 5 pints and a few hours entertainment
Go see a band - couple of hours
or
Buy something like No man's Sky - (well over 100 hours played at this point)

It's basically spreadsheet manager and it just flips my switch, even to this day!
I'll never understand why people pump so much money into Ultimate Team. It's a game mode that has never interested me in the slightest and a complete con.

About £4000 on Silkroad online back in 2005-2007 (Golden age)
A single purchase was around £200 for the Super Spy on Neo Geo MVS back in 1990!

I bought all the DLC for Halo 3 and COD 4, I did buy the packs for COD WaW for zombies, think that was £8 x3. But after that my DLC purchases were mostly done.
My biggest purchase was a Halo box at about £400. It was only bought for playing MCC, worst console i've ever used, and MCC took 2yrs to be fixed, followed by another 2yrs to get working acceptably. Not sad about the money, only sad that the Halo community got majorly let down.

FUT ultimate team, it's basically a pay to win version of fifa but online where you use real money to get the best players

Yea. Never saw the appeal.
