gatcha like games?
| What do you mean by gacha like?
| Goddess Kiss is :ok_hand:
| Fire Emblem Heroes, I guess?????? Or Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. Or some Fate bs I don't care about.
| Fate GO and Granblue Fantasy. favorite duo
| super monster league is a good one
| Maybe neko atsume ripoffs? MandrakeGirls and clawbert are shit for me, but maybe you like them. Kleptocats is a cute af one.
| Sorry, forgot to tell I was talking about apps.
| I love Kleptocats, I'll seek them
| That's hell you're walking into
| Buy some games on steam. Buy a console. Do anything besides gambling your money away on a game solely designed for that purpose.

Guess what, you can play those games absolutely for free. At least for a shott while before you hit a paywall.
| Yeah, I'd never gamble money for microtransactions
| If you wanna play a gatcha game then go ahead. Just remember the goals of a Developer making a game you buy outright and a Developer that sells the game in infinite tiny bits quite different.
I'm curious if there's a gatcha game that doesn't use real world currency, that you just buy and can easily gain in-game currency to get more characters/whatever just by playing the game more, with no limits or bullshit.
Does anyone know of one?

That type of game is a huge risk with a low payoff for the developer and publisher. They would also need a HUGE constant stream of new players to justify making new content.
| No, it would be like a normal game. You pay a full game price in exchange for a game. They would probably make less money than a game with a few millionaires thowing piles of cash at it so they cam be the winningest, but they could still make money. Plus tbey could have some pride in their work and only create things in the game that are solely for the players enjoyment.
These games are made by humans, some of whom probably want to make a fun game not an addixtive money hole.
| Plus, there are some freemium games that give you the option to buy permanent items, for example in Dandy Dungeon you can buy an item that'll allow you to have infinite energy (energy is required to play levels, restores over time) so you can play as much as you want. I believe there's some pokemon game that has some hard limit on the amount of microtransactions you can buy also for examplw.
| I'm not really sure why everyone defends companies making shitty anti-consumer decisions by saying that they won't make as much money. Astoundly things can be both shitty and profitable, and people can be upset about a shitty product that could blatently be better.
A company making money doesn't magically make criticism less valid.
| ^ The playerbase for a pay2own gatcha game would be lower than Lawbreakers. You would gate out the f2p players and whales won't satisfy their gambling addiction through that game.
| You're right, the system is perfect. No room for improvement here.

| Lunime om google play makes all sorts of thosevtypes of games. Played them for a while and they dont seem to push microtransactions. Gacha World in particular gives you a gigacrap load of gems and 3-4 guarenteed 4-5 star tickets.

| that's hell you're walking into g/u/rl
