Thoughts on Gacha Games?
#1
i play a lot of gacha games and while i try to restrain myself from spending now there was a point i spent a lot of money
it kinda feels like an addiction

what do you guys think?
do you play any? which ones? have you spent any money on them?



#2
Nah, gatcha games are really bad. Preys on gambling addiction and the likes.



#3
I haven't spent a cent but ive been playing Genshin Impact recently. And depending on the person, yes gacha/Lootboxes are completely addictive to them



#4
Last I played was King's Raid. Spent around 300euros on it before I got bored after a month.

The quality is generally lacking in most gacha games, but king's raid was actually interesting for a while there.

I still play them. I used to occasionally spend some money if I got really frustrated with RNG, but realised it really wasn’t worth it and now I almost never spend money. It’s essentially made to appeal to the same dopamine triggers that gamblers feel when playing casino games.. and you’re just as likely to win in gacha. Once you understand that, it’s a simple matter of using restraint and picking up a PC or console game when your energy/resources are regenerating.



#6
They get kinda boring after a while which kinda sucks because I love them but there isn’t that much to do



#7
If you got enough money for it, well, spending you money is up to you, man.
I just hope that I also have enough income to spend money to those things.



#8
I've been playing a couple of Gacha titles and they aren't bad, the only bad thing is that they make you spend too much money.



#9
I play Arknights for quite a while already and recently started Swordmaster story. Probably gonna stop the latter sooner or later but AK is pretty solid overall. Good gacha games are hard to find cuz for most of them you gotta whale tho :/



#10
I download one or two randomly when I'm sitting on the toilet for an abnormally long time now and then.



#11
they are fun to play to waste some time. most gachas really go hard with the gambling thogh



#12
personally i love gacha games and am a f2p player but i hate how low rates are and how little you get summoning currency so i end up dropping and picking up a lot of different gachas



#13
playing gacha games are fine but I wouldn't spend money on one, that money could be used to buy a full game that will probably give me more enjoyment in the long run. they are a nice distraction just dont get too invested i guess



#14
Gacha games are pretty much designed to get you to funnel as much money into them as possible, so... not really a fan



#15
Predatory game model. I've never felt compelled to gamble money on a game like that.



#16
I've been playing summoners war for 3 years now and havent spent a single dime. I still wonder how some actually says that a 50 dollar pack is well worth it lol



#17
Never play game which rely on gacha. Rng is ripping off ppl. Most of all, i have 0 luck



#18
I think gacha games are similar to loot boxes in the sense that you wanna spend more and more in hopes of high rolling.
