Gacha games are designed to target the vulnerable

I think people ignore that spending “whales” are often people with mental issues.

micro transactions and gacha in games has been a talking point for a while. But what people forget that the type of people that spend thousands of dollars on video game cosmetics are not rich jerks with more money to burn then your town.

but neurodivergent people who are drawn in by systems designed to make you spend money. With buying in game currency to then buy skins to disguise the money your spending. To FOMO tactics that pray on people’s anxious.

I know this because I have ADHD and I’ve been caught in a trap of spending hundreds of dollars on League of Legneds.
