anyways shaming ppl about gachas or making fun of em doesn't work bc. You know ppl being scammed will sometimes defend the scams they fell for bc they don't want to be ashamed right. You guys know that right. It doesn't make the scam any less dangerous to add external shame right. Please tell me you recognize this. That shaming ppl who are into gachas tends to just make them justify harder right. If your gonna critique addictive behaviors you at least understand how they work, right.
#Literally the things that got me out of gacha in order: the game was fuckin racist. I made bad financial decisions that still upset me#Deeply to think about the gacha or related gachas At All. And it was racist. The game was boring. The writers fucked up the story and also#It was kinda bootlicking which was weird bc earlier story seemed to be decent Abt criticism of prisons. I missed an event and got upset#And realized the game was fucking over my mental health. Do you notice how ''ppl making fun of gachas for being jpeg gambling'' wasn't#Related to any of the reasons I stopped. It was also people discussing the ways that gachas manipulate you#Through events/daily rewards/character emotional connections/sunk cost/other toxic practices#Without saying that people were stupid for being preyed upon. Because. THAT SHIT WORKS ON MOST HUMANS#ITS MANIPULATION!!! YOU ARE NOT INHERENTLY SMARTER MORE MORAL MORE AWARE OR MORE SELF CONTROLLED#THAN ADDICTS! ITS A COMPLICATED MIX OF HOW THE ADDICTION AFFECTS A PERSON AND THE SPECIFICS OF A PERSONS LIFE#SUCH AS MENTAL ILLNESS!!!!#AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#^ I love that vocaloid song. Anyway rank over I made myself upset but I'm happy it's off my chest
