     @sun NBA 2K22 has trailers showing off mini-games as gambling machines. As mdn has linked, there are videos and presentations breaking down the main psychological concepts.

     Send me money and I'll give you a chance to roll on a variety of gacha games. There's a 90% chance I'll suggest a poorly-made inferior option, but you can pay more for extra chances at a decent game!

     @sun Apparently it was 2K20 that did this. Any sports game with a trading card mode, like FIFA/EA FC, are egregious practical examples of gacha.

     @gabriel @sun weighted probabilities on a timer with both grind to skip and pay to skip seems to be the preferred option
     
     The thing you grind or pay for gets you a pull, pulls spin the wheel. The wheel drop rates must be abysmal or people won't do it.
     
     I would also wager that there has been research done to come up with heuristics that fake probability but actually just edge you up and down to control neurotransmitter responses.
     
     I have some guesses but maybe you should think of the reward algorithm more like the yt recommendation algorithm, not like a dice roll. That's probably more effective at maximizing addictive responses.

     @Gerfand @anemone @sun pure gacha is not fun
     
     mihoyo gachas actually have gameplay in them so it's not a good reference for making an activitypub-based gacha

     @hakui @anemone @sun Kancolle would be fun had it not be too autistic about you having to do missions that seen more like an series of simulations to send back in time to see how the IJN can win against the US Navy in WW2 in one single year campaing (while US get its entire war time production)
