I always consider gaming as gambling I have seen many gamblers spend a lot of money for their character and to level up their account for future profit, like selling their stuff and their character.

If you're a gamer or someone is a gamer and would like to try to gamble in online casinos will it become an easy transition as all the elements of gambling are present when you're a gamer, or does a gamer have to start all over again, and have a different motivation and mindset?
I don't like combining gambling with gaming.
Something you enjoy at daily grinding is different from something you do daily where your money is put at risk.

Gambling is not hard and the instructions for learning it are way easy. It's the money that you will have to be wise with.
Unlike in gaming, you have to learn the strategies to progress into the game especially when you are playing MMORPG. Then, you will need the help of other players to make it come true.

In my opinion if it's quite different with the game. In the game you can grinding to leveling up your level easily while in gamble you must wager some amounts that will increase level from your account. Both were different but im sure if that's a bit similar like you are doing play to win in gaming. Gambling is about accumulation from your bet and that will determine level for your account. Both are different things and you must know this.
You can't compare playing or leveling in the game with playing in the gambling. It's about how much you have been wagered

Yes, it is true that both are almost the same, and there is no need to start from scratch again because almost everything in the game is also in online gambling.
we are motivated to win and enjoy the game we are working on, which is different if you lose you lose money in online gambling.

The difference is from the thoughts of, the gamers they will not consider gaming is like a gambling and I think they will think gambling is bad habits while gaming is not even though both activity spend money.
The difference in my opinion is that gamers make money from streaming while gambling makes money based on the winnings that they get even though they can also earn from streaming but usually that is not the initial goal.
The transition will not be difficult because the terms are almost the same there is to play the games

In my opinion is not easy, because I have a friend who always plays an android game called Domino which has a list slot in game selection, so when I invite him to play a real slot on a gambling site, he always lost and stiff, he said different with he used to play that make lost his money, and continue play.

It is possible that someone can be a gamer and never get involved in gambling but the tendency of becoming a gambler as a gamer is very high. Most games give non-monetary benefits that motivate the players to play better or more which is very similar to gamble's monetary reward. Gaming helps people to develop gambling skills such as attention to detail and spending hours online.

You might not need to start all over again to learn about gambling if you are a gamer. Just recently my sister-in-law was surprised to discover that her eldest son who is just 15 is stealing her money for gambling. Everyone knows my nephew is an addicted gamer but we never knew he has started gambling. Nobody in their home has ever gambled, hence they were very sure that he learned it from playing games. The difference between gaming and gambling is very thin and sometimes insignificant.

Gamers and Gamblers exist in two separate cloud. Even their elements has no resemblance whatsoever. Transitioning from gaming to casino gambling is very rare but from casino gambling to gaming i think that will be possible. Gamers spending so much money improving their character is not really gambling in my own definition, I think they are only improving their elements even when they sell out those characters i still don't see it as gambling its pure business

But to play videogames is different from gambling. When you play videogames you face challenges, overcome them, improve your skills and in the end you are rewarded by your effort and time spent. Moreover, you can fail several times on the videogame, but you won't lose money for that and you can always try again for free until you reach your goals.

Although both are games' categories, they are totally different from each other.

It depends on the style of gaming that you like because OP says something about leveling your account. This is typical for RPG games and MOBAs. I used to play a lot and in hundreds of titles that I've tried you had no leveling at all and no gambling features. For instance, I played shooters a lot like battlefield, old  CS and such, and you had no gambling in there and there was nothing that you were playing for but pure pleasure.

In gambling you put things at stake, you can gain or lose. In gaming you can relax and all the achievement that you're getting is a scoreboard at the end of a match.

If you're a gamer and you enjoy playing the game over and over again starting from scratch then selling your old accounts then thats fine because that is something you enjoy. There are also gamers who would freak out and have a mental breakdown over having to start from scratch because they enjoy their progress and do not wish to lose it. It really depends on the person in question. Same thing goes for gambling. If you are a gamer transitioning to gambling, you might find a lot of things similiar and enjoyable. But it could also be troublesome learning new concepts.

And the thing when they try to gamble is that there are no new concept to learn, you just put your money and play and play and that's is. And maybe the gamer will enjoy it better that just the old concept of building your character in the game you play and try to make a progress overtime. Gambling is different although it could be as a addicted as a let's say rpg. But in the end, if their mindset is to compete then they could easily move without any problems in gambling.

Just common sense, it would really be a different thing when you do make out such transition because dealing up with online games literally to a game or gambling ones then you would really be seeing the difference
but somehow when you are already a gamer then you would really be finding yourself to be able to easily adapt in between transitions.Although when it comes to risk taking and the fast pacing spending of money
would be entirely be different and you would be surely noticing it when you do step your foot into another venture.The only advantage when you do make out some transfer is that you
do know on how to make yourself be that knowledgeable on online transactions and how gaming works easily.

I think im a gamer before because I spend most of time playing a video game but that didn't lead me easily to try and completely switch from gambling so my answer would be no. Two of them are in a different category even though most of the games today are gacha type and has an in game purchase included although both can possibly provide an entertainment.

For the hardcore gamers the graphics of the video games and it's gameplay are more richer than on the gambling games but the only advantage of gambling is that if you get lucky you can win money on them easily which cant be experienced by working on a regular job.

As someone who has gamed all his life since he was a little kid, to a grown man who still games every single time he can find some free time, I can tell you that it all depends on the game. Like we literally have fake casino games these days, obviously those would be alright and we would definitely find something common because we are just not doing it with fake money but real money that’s the only difference, but playing call of duty and then go play some gambling wouldn't be relevant at all.

So, it all depends the type of game that you could play and that will be actually a good result for sure, would definitely help everyone gamble better if they can find a relevant game.

I played several online games and was in "rich" clans where people spent several thousand dollars to level up a character/account. But I have never seen it make sense from a business point of view - roughly speaking, if you spent 10k dollars on an account, then you can only sell it for 1k. Such a loss is quite similar to the loss from gambling, but it is unlikely to attract anyone  Grin

I do not consider this as gambling but as an investment. You are putting money in the hope that it will be more valuable in the future. For me, gambling is when you put money hoping that you will win the money of others.

There are maybe some traits of a gamer that can help him cope better in gambling but that does not mean that you can be a good gambler if you are a good gamer. For one, as a gamer, you are used to long hours sitting and playing. Gamblers do that also, especially if they gamble in card games or slots. But as a gamer, sometimes you can lose your cool and there is no real consequence but lose a game. But in gambling, if you lose your cool, you can be gambling your life away. You can be cleaned by the casino if you do not control your emotions.

Gamers already know how to deal with every aspect of gambling games. They already know the cons and pros of the possible moves that they will make in gambling since gamers can easily adapt the game rules but it comes to taking the risks, they could be quite different. Gamers don't need to risk money but rather time and effort only but in gambling, they need to have the capital and the courage to face the possibility of losing.

If you examine both gaming and gambling, the words can often be used in reference to one another. Say we about to gamble for the winner of a bet via a game, I can say; Let us "game", instead of let us "gamble", which sounds very inappropriate for some.

It will be easy for someone already who is a gamer and normally can spend to level up their account to switch into real gambling, Casino gambling involve playing games, so it shouldn't seem like something too different.

I think those who develop a character in a game in order to later sell an account or this character (in other words, they are engaged in grinding) have nothing to do with gambling. I've done this sort of thing myself and it's business as usual - basically you spend time on a service and then you sell it.
Another thing is if we are talking about loot boxes and the like - this is very close to gambling, and if you open loot boxes, then you get a feeling of excitement. Perhaps this can be a transitional link to regular gambling.
