>phone games being ported to PC in droves now
>they make tons of money because 0 dev cost and 500000000000% gacha profit
Is it over for actual games?
Gacha literally killing gaming
thank you le based Asians for turning video games into worthless time wasting phone games
There will always be a market for actual games, but the gacha, loot box, and pay 2 win stuff will probably multiply. It'll be like the 2000s when there was a surge in f2p mmos with cash shops and stuff.
just become a gacha dev and make bank....it's too late anyways
lefties already killed gaming
>Devs see $$$ in high-effort gachashit
>Market is flooded with """free"""-to-play games
>None of them make any money
>Trend ends and industry returns to status quo
Just like ever other money-chasing market trend.
>is it over for actual games?
If Genshin Impact starts turning FGO-level profits, you can expect to see shitty business practices become even more rampant than they already are across every front. That wouldn't kill actual games, like said, but it would definitely funnel funding and attention away from them for at least a number of years.
>Is it over for actual games?
Yes, for the most part. Numbers don't lie. Gacha makes insane money. There was some hope it was confined to mobile, but now Genshill is also on PC and consoles. Everyone else will follow. I wouldn't be all that surprised if half the shills for Genshit were just from the gaming industry in general and they're paid to try to normalize gacha on everything outside of mobile.
There is no hope of players "rising up" and defeating gacha because its not these "evil" companies that are pushing it onto us, its the retarded masses (f2p btw) and the whales who gobble that shit up that are the problem. You'd need to wage psychological warfare that cements gacha player = uncool, drooling incel to kill gacha. Its over. Enjoy what actual games you can, while you can.
JUST WOW
Gacha games are literally the only games worth playing in >the current year.
At least they aren’t POZZED
unironically this
feminism killing gaming
The age of the coom has come.
technically you need to be a roided up pig to look like that, just working out will only make you toned so it is setting a pretty bad example
maybe don't shit on fanservice next time.
Gatcha-shit are the only games left with some eye-candy
True, but you can still be inspired by stuff even if they're unrealistic.
>coomers and south east asians ruined gaming
Who would have thought that I'd come to miss "le epic xbox 360 dudebro" market
There will always be a market for real games. At worst every game developer will open a mobile division to pump out gatcha of their IP's rather than hiring chink companies to do it.

I see you've made a grammatical mistake user, just thought I'd let you know.
Take a look at the best selling games on Steam user.

>anime style game that can be fun without spending a cent
Doesn't exist.
>gatcha
found the tourists
Indie devs will still make “real” games. High budget stuff is like 50/50 in actual quality anyway.
I'm a simple man, I see booty, I click the thread.
Is there any fun gachashit on PC?
This! So sick of all the woke shit nowadays
(You) have no fucking excuse when there are so many of these fucking gacha threads running daily and STILL getting the term wrong.
Summer's over. Learn to use the correct lingo, tourist.
It doesn't exist.
Well its that or the following
indies costing anywhere from 15-60 repeating the same old retro tropes ad infinitum with a new shade of paint only this time they havnt even finished the game yet and release it earlyaccess
or
AAAs repeating the same old mainstream tropes except now they pretend to be sanctimonious and pushing the envelope in topical issues.
Frankly, I can see why gacha is winning.
so which of these gachas are the closest thing to a dating sim
Langrisser has a PC client. Pretty decent SRPG.
You're just admitting to frequenting Gatcha threads.
my mind wants me to coom to this so bad, but my dick doesnt want to stand straight :(
