I just don’t understand how people can get so sucked into gacha games. All the art design, the game world, all the other stuff they try to use to camouflage the slot machine, none of that stuff works more than a few hours. Once you see the “seams” of the skinner box, once it becomes blindingly obvious there’s nothing to find at the “end” of chasing higher DPS or whatever, why do people continue? It loses any sense of fun the moment it happens.

They get sucked in to it for the same reason people throw all their money away on real slot machines. Gambling addiction is real, and we all have our vices. IMO it should be more regulated.
i like Blue Archive for its story and music and I’d even spend a few bucks if I really wanted a special character, but not much. since I’m not into the other gachas I might just be a rare example of an enjoyer tho lol

Addiction isn’t about fun.
It is about escaping.
Yeah I tried Honkai Star Rail after seeing it pushed everywhere and I bounced off it hard. I guess my brain is just broken in different ways lol.

I like anime girls and the games are fun, it’s not that deep
