What is the appeal of gacha?

Gambling addiction

>>716246241 (OP)
Everytime I roll for a new girl in gacha, I start smiling and giggling at my phone a lot. And now my wife thinks I'm cheating on her. Why is this dumb bitch like this?

hot girls and its free (unless you are a weak willed retard then you shouldn't play)

> Gambling Addiction.
> Porn Addiction.
> Dopamine addiction.
> 50% of the customer audience is always Chinese. (Official statistics.)
Well that just goes to show.

Chemical slavery and friend simulator. Kind of like the trannies that watch vtubers / streamers and pretend the people playing a character on the screen are their friends and send them money

>>716246241 (OP)
None, /v/ is just full of shills. China doesn't have much of a choice given how few games they actually get to play given the CCP's historical opposition to gaming.

>>716246395
But you can just look at the hot girls without playing them

>>716246241 (OP)
II play the ones that have gameplay and presentation that appeal to me.
>but what about the gambling for anime PNGs that you headpat???
I wouldn't know, I don't play any games where you do that.

>>716246293
99% of a gacha is doing the content and the dailies while you save up for a spark. Only retards actually gamble and the entire community will shit on you for doing it.
It isn't 2014 anymore, the market has changed.

Pretty girls
That's it

>50% of the customer audience is always Chinese
That's literally every game that gets popular in China because it's an overpopulated country full of people that live like canned sardines.

>>716246524
But you can also just play the game without spending money
Just don't swipe.
It's that easy.

>>716246647
Just literally Gacha and kusoge on smart phones.

>>716246884
yeah you can "just play" it if you already know you're not gonna care any more deeply about any of the girls than just fapping to them a few times
god forbid though you get attached to a banner character after the game goes out of its way to endear you to them through story content and you weren't planning on whaling. the game knows when that happens

>>716246884
I didn't mention money

>>716246241 (OP)
People yearning for a sense of community through shared struggles (the gambling) and tribalism (idk why this is, it's all cancer either way)
Also that they are "free" games of okay quality nowadays with no apparent barrier of entry

>>716246241 (OP)
Tranime being brown and low IQ

>>716246293
but enough about csgo lootboxes

>>716246420
>everything I don't like is addiction
Have you tried quitting 4chan, non-addicted man?

They're just games, without being designed via committee or suits or feminazi karen input. The dev studios look literally like 90's and early 00's western games studios, meaning they're all dudes with very few women sprinkled in. There's no quotas, meaning you only get hired if you know what you're doing.
The characters are appealing, i.e. what fuckwits call "porn addiction". The gameplay is fun, i.e. what idiots call "dopamine addiction", just like western games used to be 15/20+ years ago. They're just games, really, video games. Remember those?
>muh gambling
Yeah, those 70/140 rolls for ~2 mins every month sure get the dopamine running, i can feel my brain short-circuiting every time i press the "Gambling Brain Frying" button, it's literally called that, ingame! Can you believe it!?? Fucking imbeciles

Stories are more fun when they unfold in real time, little by little, month after month
>NOOO I NEED TO CONSUME EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW
Zoomers will never understand the appeal of serialized storytelling. It's one thing to sit down and read all of One Piece. It's another thing entirely to read One Piece little by little for 20 years, like I have.

Cute girls and usually some romance between them and the player character. When so many games have shitty romances or ignore it entirely, you go to gacha to get your easy hit of lovey-dovey media with a sprinkling of sex appeal.

You're still wasting time on subpar gameplay, if there even is any, grinding dailies for "free" rolls.

>>716246241 (OP)
it's good and the face of gaming since 2015

>>716247957
And you've just wasted time saying this. Why did you do that? Are you addicted to "free" posting?

>>716247540
I did fine when 4chan was done and out if it goes out completely its fine really.

>>716248073
>least ingenuous post on /v/ award

I stopped gacha after Tribe Nine failed.
The only gacha with somewhat fun combat died in 6 months.
Totally tired of this shit.

>>716247957
not a waste if people enjoy themselves. die for israel if you disagree

>>716246241 (OP)
It's waifus which are fun to have along with gambling which is fun to do. You can share your joy with other waifu gamblers or your despair that you went bankrupt and never got her.

>>716248130
I accept your defeat

>>716246241 (OP)
Gachas are like playing a long-term resource management roguelike. If you play the f2p, that is, which is the only thing you should ever do if you must play a gacha game.

>>716248153
compared to spending $30-60 on a game without MTX that has cute girls i can reliably acquire through gameplay, spending $0+a potentially indefinite amount depending on how much i care about the girls it advertises to me with gameplay that cannot be too skill-dependent lest it upends the game's carefully-planned economy sounds like a pain in the ass let alone a waste of time

>>716248548
that's nice but people are having fun at 0 dollars and you can't stand it. You think they should be noble and play games from "good" developers out of principle. Again, die for israel instead of playing videogames since it's the most noble thing you can do for your country

>>716248838
why don't you roll for a chance at me dying for israel instead

>>716248910
how about i roll for gacha to support it while you die for israel to support your country?

>>716249210
whoops another dupe. looks like your accounts bricked better reroll

>>716249265
oh no someone said israel is an apartheid state, better go to therapy

>>716246241 (OP)
Gambling waifus

yeah i wanna see someone go to vegas and try to sell gacha as gambling and see what happens

>>716249713
If you can combine it like Pachinko and make real money with it as a "skilled player", it would be a gold mine.

For morons who think Luck exists,these people basically believe in magic tricks.

>>716249956
Having high luck stat is landing that state lottery win, then you have the genetics lottery and family lottery that decide your fate. Its basically pre-genned for you at the start, that's called LUCK, the random elements out of your control. Let the dice fall as the gods will.

>>716248838
If people were truly having fun with these skinner boxes they wouldn't have to employ so many manipulative tactics in their design to keep you logging in daily to do your daily errands for gibs to gamble with.

>>716250882
same but for non-gacha games

>>716250491
No such thing as luck in a predestined universe,luck is just a cope like most things these days.
