Lots of them (the good ones) are pretty easy to play without spending a dime, which is nice...Still doesn't change the fact that the games are negatively impacted by gacha mechanics. The grind is usually ramped up to an almost unbearable amount compared to a non-gacha game, and this is an intentional design decision to influence people to spend money. Gacha games are also predatory due to FOMO and you can spend weeks grinding and still not get the character you want because of the gambling nature of the game. This is also intentional to try to get people to spend money. The games are made worse by the predatory mechanics. |

| lazycomplife 05/04/21 9:47:23 AM #1 | Will gaming ever recover from gambling or is this just the new norm forever? I'm hoping the boards are just more active because people are addicted to the games (which is sad but understandable, that's how gambling mechanics are designed - to be addictive). I hope someday gaming leaves gambling behind but I doubt it because why not make as much money as possible for very little effort? |
