People enjoy gambling, for some reason

Because it's predatory like gambling. The sooner it gets classified as so the better.
DI MOLTO!
People like gambling
People like titties

It's not hard to see that it's a combo that sells.

You're talking about gambling and missing the titty part. Missing the boba for the tea. It's gambling and titties. Deadly combination.

Gambling, porn, AND video games. Honestly the only thing it doesnt do is whip out a cigarette or drink.

I'm a simple man. I see titty, I click.
(I don't gamble, though. I'm never spending money on a gacha lmao)
Hey, everyone, what's going on in this topic? Oh.
Examples?
Asocial, not introverted. Know the difference.
Maybe those JRPGs villains were on to something about humanity being trash.
Because sex sells

Gambling and titties

Genshin's main appeal isn't really the titties any more than anything else with women in it. Decent enough story, great OSTs, an open world that people enjoy, and an outstanding touch for making cutscenes and character trailers are why it's so popular.

I guarantee if it had unappealing character designs the income would be way lower. These games are largely supported by whales. Whales aren't going to dump a ton of money for a character that isn't waifu or hazubando material.

By Being good, fun and addicting gameplay wise for the most part. Enough so for players to want to spend money on them. Idk why thats so hard for people to comprehend for some reason.

Gambling is an addiction. The only thing that's changed is it's way more accessible.

Gamers had been exposed to it gradually over the years and had time to adapt (but some still failed lol). Everybody else ran into that shit head on

oh god the infection is inside the house

There are so many good games without shit gambling systems in them that no human could experience them in a lifetime. Games with better exploration, with better combat, with better puzzles, with better stories, with better titties even. We should be better than this.

TBH the gambling doesn't even bother me. It's that they go out of their way to make the game feel like a job with constant login bonuses, time limited events, and a precious resource you need to periodically burn or else it's wasted.

Gambling is addictive to vulnerable people.
Time is a funny thing, you know? I guess in the big picture of my life, you were only a blip. But oftentimes, those "blips" make the biggest impacts.

And yet you spend your time whining about people playing gacha games instead of playing those other good games yourself smfh
How can the moon landing be real if the moon isn't real?
honestly as much as I personally dont have an interest in playing the Mihoyo games they are by far not anywhere close to the worst offenders in gacha games

if you want to complain about Big booba gachas then look at Azur Lane, Snowbreak, Nikke, or Blue Archive
Titty gacha?
He's all alone through the day and night.

We suffer from the delusion that the entire universe is held in order by the categories of human thought.
Ironically the character/weapon gacha isn't even the worst part of mihoyo games. It's being at the mercy of rolling good main stats and good sub stats to make your characters actually useful. If I was still completely f2p I would've dropped HSR over bad relic RNG months ago.

That being said I will defend the above mentioned Azur Lane just a teensy bit. There are some genuinely cool designs buried beneath all the shameless horny, and it's legitimately f2p friendly in a way most gacha games aren't. SR characters have very reasonable pull rates even without banners, when pulling on banners I rarely struggle to pull the characters I actually want. I'm currently sitting on over 1,000 wisdom cubes right now just from logging in for dailies and events, I actually am still f2p in that game, and I generally don't struggle with pulling the characters I actually want to pull when I do pull on a banner that interests me.

This. Hoyo games don't even feel like gacha, the mechanics are super easy to ignore and the game overall feels like a normal ass AAA game.

Nah it's not having a goddamn skip button for the endless amount of filler nothing dialogue.
I disposed of doubt long ago.
This will be a day long remembered.

Most of those games on current gen are not cheap, are very time consuming, and arent as accessible for many compared to gachas you can play comfortably on your phone at anytime, anywhere and while making progress.

Which is great for people with long working hours, hobbies, and are away from home for long periods of time for whatever reason.

Nah dawg, get through a story scene once and it's done, relic farming never fucking ends. I've been farming for relics for March 7th Hunt for nearly a month now and I've barely made any progress on her. Robin's waiting on me to farm another 2 pc relic set, meanwhile here's slow-ass motherfucking March who still needs three decent relics to finish her 4 pc.

Yeah it's a great game. Absolutely destroyed the original Japanese game it was inspired by, Kankore, even here in Japan. You see Azure Lane everywhere.

Artifact grind does suck, but I have a few friends that have straight up quit Genshin because of how bad the dialogue is. Generally, the Archon Quests are fine, but any side quests or events do not need 10+ minute dialogue repeating the same jokes about Paimon being hungry and shit. I've never seen anyone quit over bad artifact RNG lmao.

All these things are built around exploiting the human weakness to dopamine hits, just like Social Media.

Hey man I don't even play Genshin anymore because I hate the large and mostly empty open world more than anything else I'm just over here in HSR-land vibing with my trash can obsessed chaotic good Trailblazer.

The top 2 money maker for this period was a husbando otome game so it's actually not just about titties and ass

Examples?
One of the bigger examples is goddess of victory: nikke.

I forgot which of the gacha games this was, but there was this huge controversy among the chinese or korean fanbase (it might have been the chinese fanbase since they tend to go all in when it comes to showing devs when they are some kind of mad) when this male NPC was added to the story. I can't remember if this NPC was some kind of commander or general, all I know is that the reason this NPC guy made the fanbase was so angry because there was some sort of crazy out there theory that he might have been in love with the player's waifus. This thing exploded to the point where the company removed like a book, this NPC or something.

This might have been nikke but I'm having a hard time looking this up again. It happened a year or so back, lol.

I think the reason why something like gacha waifu devotion is so serious to certain players is a mix of loneliness, constant working making people slip further into madness, and just vulnerable dudes in general.

yeah, and Id count star rail as a good RPG worthy of playing as well. Whats the difference between playing one good game or another good game?
Thankfully I don't care about looking good

They put actual effort into making them actual games now, and with more focus on the characters so people will like them they can get more people to roll for them. Plus they get constant updates with more story content to go through, Genshin Impact has like 35 updates since it's release or something, is there any paid game that has 35 story DLCs or anywhere close to that? Even with the more fanservice games like Nikke or Blue Archive I'll still hear people say the story in those games is better than anything recent they've played

it also helps that you can sit down and play them for hours, but also easily just get in like 5-15 minute chunks in, if you only got a short amount of time to play it's easier to justify that then say boot up a playstation and a tv just to play Elden Ring for 5 minutes or something

The story in gachas, especially those Korean ones like Nikke have bizarrely good stories I literally don't get it. I've never seen so many people brought to tears over a video game as I have with Guardian Tales.
