Debate Over Gacha Games vs Paid Titles Heats Up

A post questioning why anyone buys expensive AAA games when gacha titles are free drew multiple replies. One user called gacha predatory because it incentivizes gambling for teens and kids. Another said the games consume time through required daily logins and stamina systems that punish breaks, leaving players stuck clearing content like a job instead of finishing a story. A third noted gacha players often claim their specific game avoids these issues. Others suggested pirating paid games or argued that any desire to spend remains the player's own responsibility.
