gachafags please explain the appeal of gachai hate gambling and games of chance so it doesnt register in my mind why people like it
Sure I'll give you a rundown. Here's all the reasons why someone might like a gacha game>It's funSome are just really enjoyable and appeal to certain demographics. Traditional 4niggas in a row rpg combat with a twist, simple open world exploration, tile locked strategy game etc. They're free and cost nothing to try so it's easy to see if you enjoy it with minimal effort>story/ charactersIt's no secret that japs chinks and gooks have been eating up writers from the VN industry for gacha games. Even big names like Yaro taco, Urobutcher, Nasu and more have tried their hand at writing for them. There's a wide variety of stories to be told and something is bound to appeal to you. >charactersSometimes a character just resonates with you personally. Maybe you like the design or can relate to their struggles. Maybe you just like seeing them in dynamic poses(things like GFL2 photomode are becoming more common) and taking screenshots or roleplaying who knows.
I don't play gacha I just like the funny characters
>>737579351>it doesnt register in my mind why people like what I hateyou might just be autistic
I wouldn't call it gambling since you don't get anything of value. They are also visual novels with extra steps, gameplay tends to be fuckin trash. Oddly enough the only gacha I tried with interesting gameplay was the one for women, love in deep space or whatever, but I felt like a troon even having it on my phone. Blackjack is fun btw, unlike gachas
>>737579670.cont>less intrusive/demanding/p2w etcSome games are purely cosmetic draws and stand on top of an existing game or idea like Mahjong soul, some games require little to no interaction with the gacha system like Limbus.>community Most gacha games actually have decent communitys. You need to ignore the vocal minority, just like every other game, but the people who actually play are generally decent to engage with. Alternatively you can just play within your circle of friends. >moneyYou like wasting it and gambling(obviously not relatable to OP)And finally>time Usually one of the two extremes, either you love grinding and spending hours doing it(cygames) or just want something to pick up and play for 30m on your phone(hoyo)>common misconceptionsMost gacha games aren't extremely p2w. Most of the time they're pve and there's nothing to "win" anyway. Most gacha communitys are straight, normal salarymen, and self insert egirls, no trannys and browns do not make up the majority.
>>737579351some of them (Arknights, Buraka, Limbus) are fun in spite of the gacha
>>737579670>>737580138Great writeup that is going to be wasted on retards
>>737579351SEAniggers go from f2p to f2p game and they spam the games on /v/ for free.>why don't they emulate or pirateI don't know.
and here come the gacha derangement syndrome haversthe irony is they are usually sea/brown while calling others those things
>>737580713selamat pagi
>>737579351Attractive character designs, followed by sunk cost fallacy.
>>737580713Holy shit you were right, the haters ARE brown>>737581052 this is an English board faggot, fuck off.
If you ever played or seen a browser mmo, it's pretty much the same thing. You slowly watch numbers go up while the game is constantly nagging you to pay so the numbers go up slightly faster.
>>737581407oh yeah despite playing mmos i dont really like number go up anymore, so i play mmos with horizontal progression
>>737579351Gacha is not a genre it's a monetization modelThere's no such thing as "appeal of gacha" because some are action games, some are auto-battlers, some are tactical games, some are puzzles games, etc., you like a specific game because of its story/gameplay/characters and simply tolerate the fact that you have to gamble for the characters
Gacha isn't a game mechanic(I mean it can be but in a vast majority of gacha games it isn't.) It's a monetization model. A vast majority of people who play gacha games don't play it for the gacha; they play it for the gameplay or characters.
For some reason, antigachafags can't comprehend not spending money on f2p games.And if you're just "playing" a game to get your daily currency/rewards, then it's time to quit.
>>737581792wrong, I like gacha because I like gambling for free and winning more frequently than I would in a casino, since I'm not gambling to win real money but pngs of anime girls
>>737579351>i hate gambling and games of chance so it doesnt register in my mind why people like itIt's simple>gamblingPeople are degenerate gamblers.>slopThey're subhumans, and get attracted to slop.>charactersYou get constant advertisement for characters that you need to gamble for. They're gamblers so that's the cherry on top of their casino video game. heck. The purpose of the character is to be on a casino.>community There's less multiplayer than a f2p MMOs but they don't know that. This leads us to... >it's their first gameFor lots of people, it's their first game. They'll always be unaware of predatory tactics (when a scam tactic from an older game is used, it's new them) and gameplay from other games. You see them saying "I don't see how this is different from a non-gacha game, e.g. jrpg" and they didn't play a jrpg so they're basing it on vibes. You could call it game literacy. You can't even fault them for it. You don't know what you don't know, yknow?
>>737579351It is a way for people with nothing to feel like they spent hundreds of dollars on "pulls".
>more retards appear to bump the thread from page 10 with retard non points
>>737579351No one likes it because they enjoy gambling, people don't enjoy gambling like you do playing a videogame or watching a movie, it's simply a manipulation, people are hardwired to want to gather resources, gambling gives them the impression they could get a lot of resources for little effort, so each spin of the wheel causes the brain to release dopamine, and they get an absolute bomb of it when they win, once they get the taste for that high they seek it out, thus they continue gamblingputting these systems in games for children is dangerous and instils this brain poison from an early age it should be illegal
I'm surprised there's no 4-niggas-in-a-row "gacha" roguelite. Like, no actual microtransactions or anything, but a self-contained offline roguelite where your metaprogression unlocks are different "banners", and during a run you can get the gacha currency to pull for new party members/gear.
>>737579351I'm a degenerate gambler but also a massive gooner. And the only one I play is Genshin, where I do genuinely enjoy the exploration and the world design.
>>737579351>What's the appealCollecting cool/cute/sexy characters and casual gameplay that you can do while taking a shit or in transit. Gacha games are side games, not main games.
>>737579351>Gacha World can't be played anymoreI'm the only person who cares, but it still sucks.
Gacha games are only good in spite of gacha. Blue Archive is one of my favourite games of all time but the gambling adds nothing. It wouldn't have been supported for all this time with new content without it, though, so I suppose you can justify it as a necessary evil because it's that or a sub.
>>737582934>wrong, I like gacha because I like gamblingWhich is precisely why your genre is trash. Gambling is the domain of fools and none else. No one with a brain cell in their skull would deign to gamble. Gacha is even worse because it's "safe" gambling since retards see the $0 price tag to show up every day without realizing that they are being conditioned, groomed, and molded into the exact kind of consumer the gacha gamblesludge companies want them to be.Gacha needs to be banned. Not just from 4chan, not just from one country or continent, but worldwide. It is, frankly, unacceptable and inflicts more damage to society than almost any other type of poison BECAUSE people don't take it seriously in the way they do with smoking, drinking, or CASINO GAMBLING.
>>737579351my favorite franchises are trapped in gacha and my only way to engage with them nowadays is to play said gachasi do not fool myself: literally any other medium or genre would be preferable over gachas, but it is what it is
>>737580713I'm a white American but that doesn't matter too much to me. I only hate SEAmonkeys cause they spam gachashit here. If black/brown anons just discuss games, I have no problem with them. I'm only openly racist against SEAniggers on this site, I'm not a /pol/tard.
>>737579351It's the most primitive form of number goes up after cookie clicker.
>>737579351I want to fuck gacha-chan
>>737579351>games of chancearen't they just grinding games where you use resources you've grinded for to roll for chance? guess I never thought of them as games of chance. you usually can get everything if you're persistant too.
>>737579918Based gacha gremlin enjoyer
>>737587735Gacha games are based on Gachapon, anon. You pay money to roll for a chance at a product, it's undeniably based on chance and objectively gambling. Even the games that do allow you to grind for all the characters as a free to play are balanced specifically to incentivise the players to purchase ingame currencies to roll for things with bad balancing, excessive grinding, stat growth locked behind duplicates, etc.
>>737587735You're right, the other idiot lives in theory land. 10 accounts that have played for a year are going to have about the same amount of stuff if they used their resources in the same way.
