Do you feel the same way?
I'm happy I've never been drawn to gacha games cause I have problems with that kind of addiction and imagine I'd get unhealthily hooked if I ever gave them a try

Fire Emblem Heroes at least has gameplay instead of just being ten layers of skinner box wrapped around rock paper scissors. It's the only gacha I've tried that actually made me have fun instead of solely being appealing for the anime jpgs

It probably helps that Genshin has really nice graphics and actually good exploration and combat gameplay to get people invested.

I posted before but I think it got lost, there's a terrifically funny anime on Netflix called The Way of the Househusband about an ex Yakuza that does housewife stuff

Seconding this. My wife and I took a peek at it on friday and binge watched it all the way through.

The gachas with the most effort tend to be new IPs cause they have to have a hook to make people care

Video game gachas tend to be miniature versions of their respective series with varying levels of success

Anime gachas are extremely dire cause they know you'll shell out a thousand bucks for the same character in a slightly different outfit and don't even bother to pretend to have good gameplay

Lol, welp my shot is cancelled because someone got a blood clot. Sure there's like a ten thousand percent better chance of getting a blood clot from aspirin or birth control, but now is the time to put people's safety in mind and make sure they aren't vaccinated.

There is, in fact, a blackjack gacha called BattleJack

Though that's more like, you gacha for your rpg party that has stats and skills that help you when fighting monsters using blackjack

Gotta gently caress over every vaccine but the really expensive mRNA ones. What an odd and expensive turn of events.

A large percentage of americans: COVID isnt real and no one has died from it its all hospitals making it up so they get more money, there's nothing to be afraid of stop living in fear


A large percentage of americans: I will never get the vaccine I heard a guys arm hurt very badly after getting it what if that happens to me?????

Why has Outworld's emperor sent his best warrior, Sub-Zero, to hunt down MMA fighter Cole Young?
