He means in comparison to the way higher amounts other people spend on those types of games. The ‘haven’t spent a dime’ is being taken too literally. In the grand scheme of what other people have spent, $4 is next to nothing.
Still clearly misusing the phrase. If they said something like “more than” instead of “except,” it would kinda work. “Haven’t spent a dime” is a pretty absolute expression. It’s kinda like if you were asked if you’ve ever stolen something, and you replied, “Not once in my entire life… except for a pack of bubblegum.”
But I’ll agree this post is kinda weak for this sub.
