I'm a WoT player since Closed Beta.
Well basically no longer since I started playing WoWS late in its Closed Beta. (& now haven't really touched WoWS since I started playing WoWP 2.0)
Fact is I have a heap of free Premiums WG gave me, loads of tanks of various tiers, played it for many many many hours with 55.59% winrate & didn't spend a particularly large amount of money (including a bunch of unspent Gold which is now available to me in WoWP though I've only bought 3 days Premium time -> actually made Gold profit due to WoWP Gold missions).
Never felt pressured to spend money & actually didn't spend a cent until I was saving up to buy my first T10 at which point I bought my first T8 Premium & some premium time just to make it faster.
Edit: 14* free Premium tanks, 3* T5, 4* T3 & the rest T2.
I did buy 5* Premiums tiers 3-7 that I didn't really need to & retrospectively were a waste of $$$, they represent a big % of my total spend and it was when I was already pretty burnt out.
The tanks themselves are mostly good & would have been great to have earlier when I was enjoying it more.
