Lol,so we know casinos will always win and yet we  still play to catch fun, but when we loose why does it affect us emotionally when we had in mind that casinos always win? It's addictive to be honest and it takes the mind of the strong ones to stop playing casinos games. I tried so many times on stake platform and I noticed it's a game of luck, no strategy puts you through.

It's only true for casinos to always win where a gambler is a long term investment and the house edge will have an edge but there are people who invest their money in gambling for a short term, gets profit, and get out of there without looking back, but they will always think about how quick profit they made gambling and most certainly try to do the same again and again until they fail and some lose all their money and cycles repeats.

Another reason people get hooked to those kind of games has to do with the feeling of being an innovator, after all we know that what they're doing is basically playing the lottery with their money when they are investing in those NFTs, so why they don't just play the lottery? Because the lottery is an old way of gambling, NFTs despite the fact that they are trying to make it seem as if it is an investment is just like the lottery, it is just that it is more modern and it makes people feel as if they are investing instead, and in those games that is what hooks people up.
Well, NFT games are the latest innovative way to earn money similar to gambling games but there's a bit difference. Before you can play NFT games you need to invest first on their tokens, we know choosing and investing on projects are not easy because there's a tendency that it might turn as scam.

One thing that can hook a gambler to stay on the game is the fact that you enjoy it and has a chance to earn while playing thats why these NFT games are the new trend. It might not a traditional gambling games that we know but its an interesting one and not purely rely on luck because skills are a must too.

Well, if we are talking about poker in the form of playing on a slot machine, then I do not see any problem in this. This is a wretched game I hardly believe that it will be missed even if it completely disappears. I remember how I played such a game (about 20 years ago lol), the essence of the game was that the machine randomly gave you cards and you could either take the win (if you had any combination and profit was minimal) or try to double it (several times in a row). "Funny" gameplay.

Yeah, I used to play this game too in the past, but I'd found it less interesting than most of the slots, and surely much less interesting, incomparably even, than real poker.

Maybe Video Poker used to be a good game at the time it was invented, in the mid-1970s, and couple of decades after that, but today, with so many competitors in the form of contemporary slots, there's nothing in the game to hook people to it.

Losing in gambling affects much of our emotion compare to winnings and that is normal. Casinos will always win and we can’t change that thing, their business is to keep on winning. A game can attract players thru their platform, many are attracted to graphics and many are attracted to play to earn set-up which is the best scenario now with the nft games.
People are hooked with nft games today because of the feature of earning. And that's just the same in gambling, many are hooked because they've made money from it.
That cannot be removed from those people that have experienced earning from it because they're happy doing so and that's the same as the example you've mentioned.

NFT gaming and comparing it on Lottery is totally different literally but talking about risk then  it would really be just the same.Hooking up people or trying to get users isnt something that would be easy.

Doesnt matter on what industry they are focused into but they are sharing with the common goal which is to hook up people to play on the site or platform.It  doesnt  matter on what they are offering

thing here is that the could get revenue or sufficient demand and this is something that can be attained easily.

The most popular NFT games is that they use "Play to Earn", the community of Gamers is very large worldwide, they are also a very jealous community and their dedication is incredible, in fact simply when it comes to games like Axie Among others, the players dedicate themselves day and night, the creator of Axie in the Philippines has been very successful because everything was focused on the countries of greatest need such as Venezuela, that is where the greatest demand for the game comes from.

NFT games are the ones that are most popular and seeing them with that success they will continue to come out with more options to win, since to enter you need an investment, large or small, but invest.

Demands that will sustain the business doesn't matter if what kind of offering but the aimed is to bring people to use their service and make them feel more comfortable to keep coming back.

I see your point with same risk and indeed, lottery is the old-fashioned ways but this NFT's games where more people are engaged right now.

It's the new way to hook the attentions and bring more money to this business.

I want those games that are aesthetically pleasing to the eye so I could play them without my eyes getting "irritated". Classic designs are fine, like 777 slots. Stories of the games are also bonus points to me as good plots most of the time hooks my interest. Slots that adapted movies as their theme aren't enjoyable to play for me, these slots are expensive to rent on a casino, most of the time they just deplete my balance.

This is a good point. I have noticed that many slot machine games have a monstrous mix of colors, plus a variety of flickering and unhealthy dynamics during the game. I do not understand how gamblers can play such games for a long time, and if we take, for example, a person who suffers from epilepsy, then what games will be dangerous for him.

I am asking this because I do have some short of an answer for videogames and for massive multiplayer games and even for social network oriented games. Videogames require a great design, good difficulty grading, an story that engages the user, massive multiplayer and network oriented are a lot about the interactions and how varied and fun these are. However, for casino games, it would seem that these factors are not really the most important ones. You can see games with very basic graphics and design, simple in the options for the player and not that engaging yet they do "hook" people in them.

What do these games have to have for you?

We were all created differently and like different things, sometimes we like things or get hooked to things based on the feeling they create or give us whenever we engage in them. That's why most times, you see an individual claiming to like something for reasons unknown to them or for not reasons not too substantial.

Some like the simplest of things or games, while others like others that are more complex, it is all a matter of feeling created that makes the difference. Some choose video games, some others the most basic casino games, while others may prefer online games. We were all created in manner that there are always people to satisfy and fill in different options, this is the spice of life, variety.

There are a lot of casino games online. Not all games are created equal. A games may not have all the latest game technology, but does it have something else? Is it easy to play? Is it fun? Does it have great promotions?

If the answer to any of these is yes then the website will perform well.
To make sure that the player's experience is the best possible, providers will need to make sure that the websites are easy to navigate, easy to choose what you want to play, easy to sign up and easy to submit the deposit and fund your account.

User experience!

This is the main thing on why people do stick on certain gambling site or platform if they do really find out that it is interesting then this is the main reason on why they would  stay up.

Doesnt really matter if you are really that generous in terms of marketing and bonuses but the game itself isnt really that interesting at all then it would be still useless.

As a business then this is  the most challenging  part on where you do mind off on how you should gonna hook people.

The best casino games will offer a wide variety of casino games and casino bonus promotions, and in addition should offer attractive promotions to attract new players and retain player interest in the long term and that is the most popular technique.
easy to play and easy to understand as well as a good design that makes players feel at home playing and many ways to attract new and old people to feel at home and comfortable, depending on site feedback and responding to customer complaints and opinions.

I think is about how the game works and how much they can earn. We can see that in NFT the games have good graphics and of course good game mechanics but and at the same time you have the chance to earn profit that's why right now NFT games are really popular, a lot of people got hooked to this kind of game.

Do you mean games where NTF tokens are used? I think that if a person's main idea is to make money, then he doesn't even need to play something. As I know, various NTF tokens like cryptopunks sell well and are in great demand even without any use in games or anywhere else.
Yes, in the known game Axie Infinity. If you want to have another pet, it is the usage of it as it's quite expensive to do that. But with that rewards, you're just likely to sacrifice what you've earned and reinvest it back to make another Axie.
But if you don't want to use it, you can trade it to an exchange and take the money. The usage of those tokens in NTF made it in demand because either you spend it back and use it or sell and trade it.

I heard about this game too, but decided to try it after Ethereum switches to POS, as now the prices of gaming there are absolutely unacceptable for me. In general, I am surprised that this game with such huge transaction costs has become popular, perhaps it will take off even more when the ETH network switches to POS, in which case investments in it now look attractive.

Rewards and promotion of course, if the prize is really good and probably promotion which includes cash back or other incentives people will be interested in the game but I think it still depends on the player, some player prefer good graphics, some wants gameplay, some wants both and some just for reward so we really can't say unless we make a survey about it.

What you have stated mate are one of the catchy features that gambling business or establishments or site need to impose to get people hook on the game. I think we shouldn't have to look to other aspect since we as a gambler were not just gambling for fun or to entertain ourselves but we are aiming also for a good return however this kind of good return on the money we risk to gamble is not easily earn in gambling so I think catchy services may be the key to hook people.

It's addictive to be honest and it takes the mind of the strong ones to stop playing casinos games.

The Casino always have a n hedge of gamblers with high probability of them having the fattest share. Luck is need to win games on Casino platforms especially when a player does not take high risk in betting. When playing such games the Casinos always have 70% of winning when gamblers have 30%  of winning especially for the lucky one. Whenever I'm playing I always try my best to take less risks cause I could calculate my tendency of winning.
We still come back from playing gambling games because we tend to think that someday we can win a lot of money and not think how big we lose if we play gambling too often. If we always think like that, we will back to the casino and play different gambling games, hoping that we will win. If we do not want to get hook by the casino, we need to have a strong mind that always tells us to quit gambling after spending some time so we do not have to lose more money. But still, the casino can lure the gamblers by sending the tempting promotion to all of their members and that is one of many ways that the casino always did from a long time ago.
