I guess I'm just glad I'm "old school" enough where this just mystifies me. If I play a free-to-play game, I generally don't purchase anything. If I play a non-free-to-play game, it's not going to be anything that asks me give them more money. (*cough cough* fuck you, Activision Blizzard *cough cough*).
I just can't imagine needing subscriptions or virtual currency for anything I play, much less needing anyone else to pay for it. If I were to receive a video game related gift, I'd much rather get a game than currency.

What can I say, I'm kind of a badass! /s
