Some games made me feel remorse for spending, and others are more of a slightly-begrudged feel. It depends on the monetization scheme of the game, and whether that scheme influenced gameplay at all. Grindy stuff with "pay for a boost" makes me feel that gameplay has been altered for the purpose of monetization. Loot boxes can screw off. Valorant skins can be expensive, but some of them make me enjoy the underlying item more, since I have a tendency to covet "the shiny".
