Yeah, I totally get what you’re saying. I used to be deep into skill games — mostly stuff like StarCraft and PUBG — and I thought that was “real gaming.” But lately, I’ve noticed how my friends spend more time on things like gacha or online casino mini-games. It’s not even about winning big, it’s that little dopamine hit when something rare or unexpected happens. What’s wild is how much tech is shaping that. There’s this piece I found, https://lekhaporabd.net/archives/46728, that talks about how game design is starting to blend skill and chance more than ever.
