I don’t even enjoy gacha games anymore, but I still log in every day and do dailies in Genshin and Wuthering Waves like a robot.
It’s not fun, it’s a money trap, and I’m just stuck in it out of habit at this point 💀

How do you even afford it? It costs so much?

For Genshin isn't it like $220 to get one 5 star drop?

I play HSR ZZZ Wuwa nikke limbus uma musume its like a job atp

Gacha gaming is easily worse than all the woke garbage put out these days. Instead of paying for a crappy game, you pay get a chance to unlock content you'd otherwise should have access to normally. Then you're stuck paying more to invest in the character to make them stronger, only for them to be nerfed with updates and replaced with new characters. Now they're removing stuff or making rare things you invested in useless, so that OP limited time armor you got is useless. And then there's the skins. Shelling out 20+ bucks for something purely aesthetic. Why people support this is beyond me. Once the game dies and they want to kill it off, all that cash you spent is gone once those servers go offline. I'm not crazy about the Veilguards and the Dustborns, but people think this shit is what is singlehandedly killing games, when gacha is a much larger problem. Minimalist skinnerbox gameplay with FOMO gambling mechanics to prey on your endorphins under the guise of video games. I'd rather pirate and slog through some Ubislop with Oda Nobuni99a cutting down nips and banging troons, then cough up 50 dollars for a lewd skin for a character I wasted 200 dollars trying to get in a game that mostly plays itself.

Would WoW qualify as a gatcha game?

I've never played phone games because of my old nokia.

I have a pixel now but I never use any of the internet horseshit on it.

Would WoW qualify as a gatcha game?

No, but the microtransactions, poorly recieved additions/updates and changes to gameplay certainly hasn't done the game any favors. I personally could never get into mmos, either. Video games are usually a single player affair for me, with couch co-op being the extent of my multiplayer endeavors, and that's pretty much dead these days.

So much hate we need more love the power of love!!!!!

They are built on manipulative practices, it doesn't feel good to play them knowing that.

If they were just basic subscription model games with guaranteed new character access, it would be alright. But, they make far more money as casinos.

I played Genshin for some time, but before that I played a mobile one called Destiny Child. Largely, I was FTP, but then some character would come along that checked some box in my soul and I would lose my mind chasing them.

meh, dont even have a smartphone, i just play them on an emulator, and often times there's cracked versions available.

I never spend money on them, I feel bad every time I delete them considering how much time I invested. I keep thinking I'll play them again someday, but honestly, it feels like a hassle.

gotcha games suck no thank you

Skill issue.

Just don't fomo.

I gree ：）

I've literally never played a single second of a gacha game and don't plan on starting.

There are like 10,000 non-gacha games on Steam. Anyone who complains how they "have to" take part in the worst modern business practices whether that's gacha or lootboxes or battle passes is a retard.
