I haven't tried this game but I'm familiar with it because one of my colleagues is addicted to it. This will only be addicting to those who always want to purchase items online but to those who only want to focus on betting and winning money or crypto, they wouldn't surely get interested in it. This is fun but will only waste bigger funds compare to regular and traditional casino games.

This game is a complete waste of money, for some people who like it and possibility to be addictive, but not for me. Yes I've played this game gacha, it's interesting and the same as gambling, spend money and hope to get items etc. I don't think it's worth it if we play gambling just to increase the quality of our game account, so for me personally playing gambling is better go directly to the source such as casino to collect a lot of money.

Anyone here played games like FGO, Epic Seven, or Summoners War before? Do you consider it to be some kind of gambling addiction if a player whales or spend tons of money in the game just to get a certain item?

For those who don't know, a gacha game is a genre of video game where players pull, spin, or roll using an in-game currency to receive a random item. That item can be something that could make their characters stronger or sometimes it's just some limited skin which has no effect other than to make their characters look cooler.

I don't know this game maybe because I've been very rarely involved with application-based games. but if I try to find out about gacha games on the internet, it seems that this game has almost similarities with other games in general. and if I refer to what you said, many people spend money just to buy items, skins, game currency, and so on. it's very commonplace, not surprising at all. in fact, esports games are the same.
I think there is a difference between gambling addiction and addiction to games like esports or gacha games. but basically both fall into one category, namely addiction.

for me IMO we cannot call it gambling unless if we can get profits from it as well reason we spend money.. If not and the reason is to get more items on the games like what you've said above, then we cannot consider it as a gambling addiction, wherein you just being addicted on the game even you know thay there's no good return from it.    Cheesy
That's just on you mate but gambling doesn't mean it's all about profits, something like rewards to be won at the end can be considered gambling, just because it's gambling doesn't mean it's all about money. For Gacha I guess we can associate it on gambling though with a different propose.

I used to play Clash of Clans and Clash Royale... Both games are free to play but you can buy gems to bump your levels on the game. I never did it, but it takes years to get to the max level just to realize the new update with more levels will come soon, lol.

The crazy thing is how good business this can be, in the example of the 2 games i mention before, they belong to Supercell, and that company is now worth $11B!

Gacha games are more or less similar to gambling, can increase a high sense of comfort when you can get what you are looking for, when dopamine increases, the brain will continue to look for similar stimuli and make it a common addiction reaction.
Gacha games are a relatively new genre that is rapidly gaining popularity in Japan and many other countries around the world. And usually, gacha games have a mechanic of the same name, where you use something similar to a toy vending machine to get random virtual items, for example, new characters, costumes, and armor.
And it allows you to create your own world with an army of powerful characters. However, to use the gacha machine, you need in-game currency or real money.
and the list of the best gacha games in my opinion is, GENSHIN IMPACT, ANOTHER EDEN, GACHA NEON, AZUR LANE, RAID: SHADOW LEGENDS.

I have never played this type of game but if I search for a while, I see that this game is almost similar as gambling games in which player deposit their money to buy some features.
And the reason why people play this game is because of the money that they can get while they play.
But unfortunately, not all people will get the money because that depends on their luck.

I am one of those who don't know this game but based on the reward system and the way they get those random items to make their character stronger I consider it gambling, anything that you use the word pin and roll and money to do this I consider it very similar to dice or slot, and of course players are spending money with uncertainty for those rolls and spins, majority of games are like that you need to play or to buy to get those items, but as long as you enjoy and you only use money that you can afford to lose or you allocate money for this you're good for this game.

I never played Gacha game but I think myself familiar with it because I love gaming in general. I think that type of game can definitely be counted gambling. But concept is bit different as you actually spend your money to buy things. (I mean, if you don't think about casino part of it). I feel like adding luck element to buying experience can be really fun. Games are best options out there that you can exactly implement this. It is bit niche but I think it's worth trying for gambling investors.

But not all addictions are entirely destructive and don't have any positive benefits. For one benefit, these games can provide better satisfaction for people who play them and the purchases are necessary to ensure the developers of the game can still keep benefitting as well.
Definitely you have not been addicted before, that is why you can say that not all gambling addiction is addictive. In reality, all gambling addictions are destructive. The destructive that I mean is that is would be affect the gambler, especially financially. And if care is not taken, it can even lead to destruction. People can not gamble frequently and continue to win than lose, the person would lose than win, which is where the problem is going to begin.

If i could get you clearly, do you purchase those item for gaming purpose of you acquired them to play and gain profits after winning the game?
if it's to make profit then i would say is considered to gambling. What would be your profit acquiring those items online without gambling, lemme say you did that for a purpose and is either you make profits from it or lose.

Although i have less idea about this game.

I don't recall the name of a game more specifically a Castlevania game for the Xbox 360 that you needed to farm a lot for a specific item.While this is not gambling it sure takes away a lot of your time in find those rare items as you have to complete a certain round thousand times before you were lucky enough to get it.It was a multiplayer game of 6 persons playing simultaneously together in clearing about 12 levels maximum at that time.

There are other games similar to this which need you to purchase a certain item to improve your character,to level him up or make him stronger,still this is not gambling but it is a sure thing that people who buy such things are only one step away from becoming gamblers and once become gamblers they have high chances of becoming addicted.

A lot of these massively multiplayer online games have in-game currencies and you have to perform certain tasks to gain some virtual reward or item. I used to play a text based game called, Batmud and it was one of the most addictive games that I have ever played.

One of the most addictive roles I had played in this game, was to be an alchemist ....where you gathered or bought certain minerals or items and then you combined them to create rare or expensive potions or items with special abilities. A lot of the tasks had some roll of the dice elements to it.... and that made it a lot more challenging.

Some sensitive people seem to think games like this prepare kids for gambling... and that it is wrong, because games like this is targeted towards education and not teaching kids to gamble.   Wink

It's an addiction, but not a gambling addiction I would say. In gambling, people spend with the expectation to win back, but this I have interpreted to be just like you said that the person only spends money to improve look or ability of their character. If you are willing to spend on looks and appearance of a game character, you are addicted. But not all addictions are entirely destructive and don't have any positive benefits. For one benefit, these games can provide better satisfaction for people who play them and the purchases are necessary to ensure the developers of the game can still keep benefitting as well.

This type of game is addictive. In gambling addiction, it is just like any other type of addiction too when someone will be doing things he responsibly not want to do in a way that thing is taking more of his time than usual and also in the process, losing more than win, leading to irresponsible way of gambling. If a gamblers is playing gacha game with money (I mean using it to gamble), spending a lot and spending more time than usual, that is addiction.

It's the same as the traditional gambling games that we used to play but the reward and prize are in the form of items. So, I'd say that this is also gambling.
You're betting with in-game currency and it's an in-game way of gambling. And that item that has no effect which could be in no demand is like that you've just lost the game then since the item could have no to little value at all.

These games are popular in specific region of the world. Moreover it turns to be a addictive game which helps people avoid over spending through other forms of gambling. It is something like dressing up the Barbie doll by the little kids. In game currency being used, maybe the same with cryptocurrency might interest some of us to explore it.

Personally, I have never had the pleasure of trying out "Gacha Games" but it does ring a bell. I think it has to do with Japanese gambling that was modified due to Japan's extremely strict gambling laws. They basically found a loop-hole in the law to make sure the payout was not in cash but in a token which you could then use to "purchase" certain prizes, like bars of gold (Which you could then exchange for actual money). It seems like a silly grey area that they should have gotten rid of already but the Japanese seem to enjoy gambling too much to close down the concept of Gacha...

Personally I would steer clear. Why? Because those tokens can become completely worthless the moment vendors decide not to accept them any longer.

I believe this is already implemented on Play to Earn games on NFT but not on gambling because no one will gamble on this games if you have small bank roll since whale players will just it your bankroll if ever you manage to encounter whales. This type of game is only possible on games and not on casino because this game genre is design for collectibles and rpg while casino game is purely aim to just win or lose the money without any complicated feature such collection of characters.
