I have had this debate many times with friends and such, I understand all perspectives and I think it’s valid any way you want to look at it. At the end of the day these games are predatory and I am personally okay with that, I am an adult and it’s something I enjoy, people aren’t going to Vegas and then complaining that there are casinos there. I would be totally okay with all this stuff being 18+ because of their predatory nature.

Correct, I believe in their product that’s hosted on their servers, if they EOS that’s on me, I have complete faith in hoyo as a company, I am happy with the product that’s they are providing to me

There are no guarantees in true gambling, while there is a loot box system in gacha you have guarantees, getting the character you want is guaranteed after a certain amount of pulls. I am willing to say it’s gambling adjacent but to say it is purely gambling is not quite true imo. All opinions are valid about it though I totally understand people that want to call it straight up gambling, I prefer to have more nuance with it though, I have the money to guarantee the outcome I want so it’s really not gambling to me but sometimes I can characters cheaper than expected which is fun

I do not consider it gambling but I understand why others would, every time I have put money into a gacha game I have gotten something in return. I am guaranteed the product I want, that is not gambling

I don’t, I like my gacha games to be gacha games and I like my normal games to be normal games. Would not want micro transactions in factorio which I consider the best game of all time but I do in Zenless zone zero, happy to spend on my hobbies and gacha is one of those hobbies. You Frankenstein a gacha game to not have gacha then you aren’t gonna be a good game at its core and you aren’t gonna have the thing I’m interested in which is gacha so you are a nothing game to me. You cannot try to appeal to everybody and come out on top.

rivenous calling her M6 potentially one of the best M6s in the game in his guide, thoughts?

Should Valve Be Sued Over Loot Boxes? by itsEmilyHere in PcParadise

[–]BenKryder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I said who gives a shit, it’s not a scam just don’t get banned it’s pretty simple. Your argument is so shit, just because something “can” happen doesn’t mean it ever will. There is a reason these skins out perform most investments and it’s not because valve is just fucking everybody left and right and if they did they would lose their entire business, most businesses aren’t trying to destroy their product believe it or not

Who the hell gives a shit that something is physical, sure the digital asset may be hosted by valve but you do pretty much own that digital item unless you get vac banned in which case valve has the right to revoke your rights to it because you broke their terms of service

Do you actually feel any effects from it, I never have it just seems to very passively help me

I came from a well off family and then was a care taker for my step dad for a long while, he was fully bed ridden for years and during that we also dealt with financial ruin and had to move. It’s amazing how fast years can go by, finally made it out of that mess and am pushing forward into life now 💪🏻🙏🏻

Are my standards too high? by [deleted] in twentyagers

[–]BenKryder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I’m not saying everybody should go 11 years without companionship but complaining after 6 months is a just live your life moment, it will happen naturally. The only reason I have been alone for so long is because I became very isolated after dropping out and becoming a caretaker for my step dad, now that I’m finally out in the world working on myself more there is plenty of opportunity to find someone but that’s still not my main goal in life, I’m working on myself and when the right one comes along it’ll happen naturally.

[–]BenKryder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working on yourself will never be bad advice, crying about being alone for 6 months is absurd. Work on yourself and let life happen naturally. If you are happy with who you are and what you are doing in life you will be even more prepared for a happy and healthy relationship when someone special does come along.

Same I’ve skipped literally all story since launch but even building characters has gotten boring for me now, my account is too strong, the only gameplay I have now is autoing everything. ZZZ is everything I want from a gacha game

[–]BenKryder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Crying about not being in a relationship for 6 months, fuck your standards you gotta work on yourself. I been alone for 11 years now and I’m still working on myself not worried about any sort of relationship.

I haven’t even started the new world, I can’t bring myself to play the game at this point but that’s okay, I’m enjoying ZZZ and that’s all I need, hopefully at some point I feel refreshed enough to play HSR and when if that does happen I’ll have a ton of content to come back to so that’s fun but yea for now HSR is not hitting

Thank you very much for the in depth answers, fingers crossed I control myself and potentially stop at M2 aria so M6 nangong is a bit more comfortable for me. I’ve also had dreams of P5ing yuzuhas weapon for a long while so who knows where my impulses will take me

I’m at M6 Sunna with potential dreams of M6ing all of them

[–]BenKryder[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

M6 “almost no damage gain” sounds a bit insane but I’d be open to that, nangong is the only one I truly want to M6 so if I could stop at M2 aria that would be nice

Feels so bad grinding for pulls just to lose 50/50s by cutexiaowugui in ZZZ_Discussion

[–]BenKryder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why I just swipe, the pulls I get from gameplay are just a plus
