gacha games are bad because uhhhhhh
>>
Because I dont like them.
They never pander to my tastes.
>>
>>729276252
They do not respect your time.
The overwhelming majority of gacha games expect that you will play according to their schedules.
They do not set aside events for you to explore at your lesuire.
If you miss something, it's gone.
You are their bitch.

Battlepasses, fomo, mtcs. Not gacha

The gameplay is never the focus of gacha. It’s all about nudging you to spend money through fomo and low pull rates.

You mean like World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy and all those MMOs that anti-gacha boomers love

name a single gacha game that people would still play if it didnt have gacha
>>
>>729276520
This. They've gotten better with Genshin actually looking/functioning like a proper video game, but the only thing they care about is allowing you to barely get by without needing to spend money, but also "highly suggesting" you blow all your money at the slot machine hoping for a PNG of an anime girl you want to cum inside

Yes, MMORPGs are garbage.
Gachas are even worse.
You are sliding down into an abyss of shit.
>>
>>729276252
Sure there's going to be some poorly tuned shit that expects you to grind for five years or pay real money to do anything, it was like this years before gacha existed and it will remain so long after they die.
Fuck, man. I haven't seen a critique of "gacha" in general that actually applied to gacha in years. It mostly seems to be retards who are so attached to controlling how much "content" they have access to they go into a frothing rage at the sight of even potentially missable stuff.

puzzles and dragons was at one point the highest grossing game in the world and they released a 3ds version that you couldnt spend real money for ingame items. everyone agreed it was mid and it left zero impact

Games are for having fun. Gacha is anti fun. It's the definition of bad and they do it intentionally.

false. you're making a disingenious bad faith argument. being you think that being intellectually dishonest will work on people with superior brain power.
>Battlepasses, fomo, mtcs. Not gacha
his point. also, all of it is shit. Here is the deal, slave of a corporation, if a piece of software only works "online", it isn't a video game. Simple as. It's the peasant enslavement software.
>Standard practice.
Absolutely not. Never has been, never will be. A video game is a piece of software that lets you play it start to finish however you want, whenever you want. Anything else is being a slave consooomer.
>Not a woman
Worse, actually. You belong to them.

I often see gacha described as MMOs for people that don't have time for MMOs, and I think it's very on point. Gacha is fundamentally about grind, you grind and grind and grind some more, as the game itself sets a strict schedule on which you can progress(unless you want to buy this boost real cheap *wink wink*) while also rolling out new updates to ensure that whatever you got before never remained useful for long. Quite literally a treadmill.
Now, some people might actually enjoy that, like they enjoyed Baal runs in Diablo or grinding to endgame in Disgaea or just idle games in general, but ultimately it's just a number go up game with a lot of glitter sprinkled around, but unlike aforementioned cases, in gacha(and freemium shit in general) the pace of your grind is strictly moderated, making it a prime blueball experience as well.

>solo gacha brownoids still seething at social mmo enjoyers
imagine doing all the shitty grind of the worse p2w korean mmo but you're solo the entire time rather than spamming GM and racial slurs in the GC with your mates

>>729276390
False, I can play as much wuwa as I want, from 1min to hours
False, most events in wuea are permanent, you can play them when you want
Tldr, there are shitty gacha games and good ones like there are good games and bad ones.

>False, I can play as much wuwa as I want, from 1min to hours
And out of curiosity, what can you actually do in those hours besides progressing the story?

>unless you want to buy this boost real cheap *wink wink*
How many times does this actually happen? What gachas? The ones I play offer transparently, laughably bad deals on just about everything you pay real cash for, and then give out enough currency to guarantee a limited every time a new one rolls around. Paying money to try and get around a struggle you're suffering because of the number of days you've been playing is usually the least efficient purchase in the game. Do people just not math this out before they click the shiny button or what?
>whatever you got before never remained useful for long
Once again, what gachas? My experience is that a good unit usually winds up continuing to stand out in whatever category they originally did.
>>
>>729279127
You can technically play any gacha "as much as you want," but tell me how long you’re banging your head against resin timers and daily quest limits before you’re just orbiting around menus pretending to be productive? Gachas bait you with burst content followed by droughts padded by spreadsheets, FOMO events, and two-hour windows of fun per week. Good ones, bad ones - still cut from the same manipulative cloth. WuWa dressing up its treadmill in pretty shaders and waifu physics doesn’t change the loop.
>>
>>729285551
I don't want a game that I can keep plowing ahead on by continuing to play. I want something that I can only build up over real time. Pokemon was at its best when the games did something like this.
>>
>>729276252
It's a genre not named for its gameplay but for its monetization scheme.
>>
>>729276252
For me it's more the "people" that they attract. You go into any gacha general on /v/ and make one criticism and they all jump on you calling you indian or whatever. Bunch of precious snowflakes.
Otherwise, I can just ignore them entirely. I'm not gonna complain that there are millions of flies out there eating shit.
>>
>>729288050
Sounds to me like you're just invading people's hangout spot to be an asshole.
>>
>>729288169
>Anything negative == asshole
>hangout spot (lol)
You're just reinforcing the fact that you just want a hugbox/safespace to jerk each other off in. Discord or /vg/ exists for you lot. Oh and sorry if this hurts your feelings :(
