$30 cosmetic microtransactions are reasonable in Path of Exile, imho. But it's free-to-play, and most of their MTX are purely cosmetic.
To get the "full" experience, I suppose you'll want to drop a retail-box-price on a supporter pack to get some stash tabs, but you can reasonably play the game to end game content (30+ hours of play time for the first time for a new player, I'd guess?) without spending a cent.
But MTX in a game that's over $100CAD on release? ಠ_ಠ
I spent about 40 bucks on poe. I don't think it's worth spending much more. It's a trap.
I spent about the same on a couple of stash tabs during a sale. I don't regret it. The game gave me a couple of hundred hours of fun. That's more than most games
