Do you purchase resources from the official store?

I have been very curious about this topic. Do people purchase resources from the original store for RPG Maker? I have never seen most of the resources from the official store in games. The most common pack to see in games is the RPG Maker MV: Essentials Set. This pack includes graphics that should have been included in MV. A lot of people just buy it.

 

I have purchased resources from the official store. I think the graphics help my game stand out from the usual RTP. My game still has the RTP, but at least it has a variety of different graphics as well. I buy the character packs and monster packs.

Steam, yes.
A lot of the products from the official store (if not all) are also on Steam. Since I can easily get Steam Wallet cards, that's my best, most viable option.

I think I have bought and/or been gifted well over 70 resource packs for VX Ace, and about a dozen or so for MV. I don't currently use MV that much because the software barely runs at all on my lackluster hardware (it wouldn't if there wasn't a specific dll file that even allows it to run on older hardware reserved for the poor and disabled like me), but I did get some asset packs for it because I want to get more experience with it down the road.

VX Ace is where I am at with most projects, though I also use XP (map layers!!), and I use both 2000 and 2003. VX is something I meddle with on occasion but still glad to have nonetheless. Yeah; I have all six RM engines. If RM95 were to be redone (LOLOLOLOLOL-NOT LIKELY #LMAO) I'd get that one too.

Now I've veered out of scope and over the ramp like Evel Kneivel! lolz
