Dude needs to stop playing predatory gacha games.
I don't understand people who WILLINGLY install that shit. They KNOW how they work and are monetized. And unlike gambling at a casino, there's zero chance of you being up money at any point.

EDIT: Fuck y'all. Upvote my top comment, then bomb the replies I make? Go fuck yourselves.

That feels an awful lot like saying opiates are fine just don’t get addicted. It’s easy to say when you aren’t susceptible, but clearly some people are and it’s not very productive to be dismissive of the primary way they make money.

I was going to say YEAH! but then remembered I was addicted to World of Warcraft from 2006 to 2017 and then
relapsedstarted playing again in 2019 after WoW classic came out and every now and then something wriggles in my brain to say you should sign up again, it'll be fun -

Playing a video game does not destroy your body. Maybe try thinking instead of feeling.

What kind of time warp are you in? Just doing WoW dailies took all day and made me realize I was wasting my life.

They are not a great analogy because they at least have a legit use in medicine.
That said, not really sure what the best analogy for SAAS slot machines would be. Even playing them for free you still have the sensation of pulling down on the device (phone screen/machine lever) and then the "spin" with variable rate rewards.

wrote last edited by [email protected]A better comparison would be alcohol. Many people consume alcohol but very few people become alcoholics. Maybe it is genetic predisposition or environmental/mental factors that lead people to abusing it.
Similarly with gachas, millions of people play them as free to play, without ever spending money. A lot of people spend 10-20€ a month and very few people spend hundreds or thousands of euro every month.
As far as honkai star rail is concerned, i enjoy the story, environments, music and the characters and i recommend it. You dont need to spend and you can do everything(or miss like 5% of the rewards, if you dont want to tryhard) without ever spending money.
The main selling point of the game is the story and you can do that with any characters. If you dont want to participate in the endgame, you can ignore it. Ultimately it is a singleplayer turned based "rpg", though it is actually just an anime+idle game. Every 40 days, you get a new episode/season.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Exactly. I have been gaming for decades, yet I never played any of these. Only heard of WOW and Apex Legends out of all the names, no idea what the rest are.
It is possible to spend your money and time on games that provide the entertainment you’re looking for, but not exploit you.

I played Arknights for a bit because there's actually a pretty solid tower defense game in there. There's not a big selection of good games for Android and I wanted something I could play when I have no laptop with me.
Unfortunately the good gameplay is buried under tons of attention hogging gacha bullshit.
I stopped playing once I realized that I was spending more time doing chores than actually playing through interesting content. Also, while the BGM is nothing short of lavish, the presentation of the story is like a very cheap VN, which basically killed any hope of getting engaged in the story or the characters.
I didn't spend much more than maybe twenty bucks on it so it's not too bad given the partially solid gameplay. But yeah, I'm done with live service bullshit games.
