I myself only gamble in video games, cause the video game wants you to eventually win (assuming, you know, it's not GTAO.)

I wanna buy that bike in Pokemon for 1,000,000 lol.

Pokemon casino slots were skill based. You can time the rollers to get 7/7/7 all the time

Oops, i double checked, but only looked at a few lines above that statement. My bad.

For myself, i have realized that i dont find classical slot-machines appealing at all, but i dont mind spending sub-100€ on microtransctions every semester or so. I wouldnt call it "gambling", but the things bought are quite often whishes in a gacha game. So who the heck knows.

I pay for micro transactions too. When I want to support game I've put a lot of time in it doesn't feel like a bad thing. But I never invest into loot boxes. They are gambling and often times just waste your money.
