:cacoblobcatcomf: (npub1gzs…qnue) its a pretty clever thing more of the games are doing. they make it so you earn some amount of gems calculated not to make a meaningful difference--but god damn is it effective at weaponizing fanboys.
back when the koreans were having a really hard time breaking in with the gatcha models they started doing this and i used to see it brought up literally every god damn time.
which inevitably leads to talking point wars about "but you can earn it" "but its literally more effective to work at burger king and buy it" "well just dont be poor bro" etc. tedious as hell.
i admire how effective it is.
