Topic: Why not play games online instead of gambling? - page 29. (Read 5608 times)
We millenials who are really into social media, online gaming, or anything connected to the internet and computer would love to play the games online but we should admit that still it is more enjoying when you are having it in the actual life. I personally don’t stick to online gaming only, I still like to play and gamble on the real world and I think this feeling is the same with those who are not “Techy”. They would find playing gambling in reality is easier and funnier than online.
I've stopped asking myself this when I gamble. I used to spend huge portions of my days playing roleplaying games (pen and paper, dice) in my teens, and then for a period in early twenties drowned my waking hours with boardgame-style games. They were fun, very fun. Good that I slept so little so I still spent enough time working but still a lot of years down the drain. But the risk that comes with gambling is something different entirely. I'm prone to lapses in judgment and self control but generally can keep myself from losing too much.
First of all, gambling is not the same as games especially online games. Gambling can earn money, though there are so many losses you get. But the game only produces fun and will spend your money. You can only earn money from games if you join the competition or become a youtuber. Or you sell various items in the game. And also, if you play the game you have to have a great special skill. But on the other hand gambling does not need any skill. Most gambling just needs luck. But what is certain of both is, gambling can not be used as main income. So basically the sensation of playing gambling and games online is totally different, of course.I've stopped asking myself this when I gamble.

It's a different feeling man hah.
Putting the loosing aside for a minute, the feeling when you win is pretty cool.
I don't think online games can offer that.

More importantly, I don't spend as much time on the only leisure activity I still keep in recent years. I consider the amount I lose on gambling and sports betting as worthwhile for the entertainment I get.
Plus, maybe I win the lottery one day. Cough. Wheeze.

Many but not all gamblers are claiming they gamble for fun and pass time. I was just thinking. If it is the reason why people gamble then why not play online games? There is a lot of good and challenging onlne games wherein you can interact with other people online?
You should know the difference between playing online games and gambling games and what kind of "thing" it brings on a person.
Different people have different aspect in terms of playing something. It's obvious that when someone deal with a gambling games, they looking for a profit in return while at the same time having fun. Those people who literally say they gambled for fun isn't really gambling just for fun. Somehow they want a return.
That kind of traits removed their real meaning of gambling for fun so I don't believe that people gambled just for fun even they afford to lose the amount that will placed on bet.
Games have their own benefits and entertainment value. But gambling with real money and having them at stake based on your wins and losses provide a different kind of thrill.
I agree with that and some experiences are better than others. It's going to be a one heck of a ride if you are going to risk everything. That's a different kind of thrill in my opinion but it's a stupid one. It's hard to earn real money in a big scale. You really have to work hard on it

I also play some online games but sometimes I also want to have some excitement from gambling.
The thoughts of winning while your enjoying the games makes it more exciting sometimes I even use some online games that I play to make some money.

I think one of the main reason why some people prefer to use their time on gambling rather than gaming is because of the thrilling feeling they get when they are able to win huge money from the casino in just a few hours of their time, playing games online could never let you earn so much money in just a short period of time unless you are a professional gamer who take part in big major tournaments.
Many people chose to play in a landbased casino rather than online games maybe because they want different sorroundings especially when they are seeking for fun or to be entertained. Casinos now a days offered lots of different means of entertainment not just gambling. Such such as a variety shows, concerts and so on. And interaction in person are far different from online interaction.
That's right, it's all about their own preferences for entertainment. Online games could not satisfy their cravings for entertainment and also in gambling there's also money in stake so it would be more fun to win in a game in which you can also gain money.

I think that if people do not play games online, because they have some reason, I think that, as people playing online games, they used to spend their time at some time and enjoy some fun, but playing gambling, enjoys just as much fun In the same way they think that they earn some income through it, so that people caI do not think playing games online is more interested in gambling, so I feel that even after having so many good online games, people enjoy gambling game more, so that people do not play games online playing gambling,
online games and gambling differs in many ways, because online games is just a game, just for fun but in gambling , there is a thinking of earning in return.

True. Much better to play online games only and have fun than gamble with your money and lose. My husband and I loves to play poker online. It become our bonding moment when we are playing poker online and we enjoyed a lot with our millions of money while playing. When we get tired we then bet all our money all in and lose it all. We lose our millions but we enjoy playing it. At least, it is not a real money though.
Some people gamble instead of playing online games because in gambling there is a feeling of excitement while playing that you may have a large amount of money if you win unlike in online games, you may not get something from it or maybe just a little price. In gambling you are not only having fun but also hope that you will earn money.
I think it is much more thrilling to play with money. Definitely gets your adrenalin pumping when you are winning and losing real money.
Just a matter of taste. Everyone has his own liking and disliking. Some people may find gambling as thrilling but this world is full of individuals with different interests. The major fact that attracts gambler is the involvement of money. Everyone wants to have it and care about it. Personally, I dislike this game because I find it insane to place bets while someone is already controlling the outcome. Many but not all gamblers are claiming they gamble for fun and pass time. I was just thinking. If it is the reason why people gamble then why not play online games? There is a lot of good and challenging onlne games wherein you can interact with other people online?
Everyone's hobbies is different. I agree with your opinion about the fun and entertainment of online games and we should play game online instead of playing gambling continuously. However, not everyone is interested in online games. For gambling addicts, I think they have considered it a game and they want to make a lot of money from gambling. Changing their hobby is very difficult

I wouldn't say it's the main reason to gamble. And some people do like play online games, it depends on one's hazard and preferences. Various people just don't feel the fun if they don't play for money and all other online games seem mimic, others may hope to gain something. Jump to:
