The more I look at gacha, the more I think it is wrong to blame the software companies for the casino based pricing.
The real problem is the hardware companies such as Apple and Samsung. Both of them get their money from the hardware. They have NO INTEREST in making software expensive just as Microsoft had no interest in making hardware expensive. Microsoft convinced so many companies that computers should be as cheap as possible. All the computer companies bankrupted themselves by competing at the bottom. Now everything has flipped around with software companies bankrupting themselves by competing at the bottom.
The reason for the casino model, for in app purchases, is entirely due to the expectation that software be free. Who made this expectation? The hardware companies such as Apple and Samsung.
I don't understand what these games are. It just seems like people post a gacha thread then it's just lewd images and it seems like the games are idle games where you randomly unlock lewds. Is that all they really are? Why not just download the lewds?

Am I the only one who gets triggered by low quality fanart?

Apple and Google didn't make the expectation it's just how humans tend to operate. Any sort of digital market place on a global scale like an app store on a phone would devolve into free games that sell you shit later because it's just objectively the best business strategy, ethics aside.

Yes everyone knows Apple completely destroyed any possibility of having a healthy mobile software market.

The only gacha I've played is FEH, and that's because I like Fire Emblem and that's the only way this series gets some love aside one game every 5 or so years. If anything, FEH taught me to never touch another gacha ever again, if this is considered one of the tamest and most user-friendly gachas I don't wanna imagine how awful are the others.
I have never played a gacha, convince me to play one

Don't and if you still do. Either look up the art and CGs instead on Youtube or find a hacked APK so you don't have to deal with mechanics specifically designed to make you want to spend money. Playing legit is peak retardation unless you're filthy rich that spending 4k a month on some .jpg is nothing.
t. used to play a hacked Azur Lane APK that gave me every coomer skin for free

Yes. seeing numbers go up makes the monkey in my brain happy. I don't even pay anything in gacha games but I will still "play" them just to have it running in the background while I watch something so a number is going up while I'm doing nothing productive. other f2p games demand too much attention and/or time. gacha games just let you click a few buttons and do something else while it auto completes.
It depends. Games like Azur Lane are purpose built as coomer games. Other games like F/GO have some coom built into them but a lot of it is fanart and people genuinely enjoy the story. Then there are games like Arknights that keeps the coom to a minimum and most people play it for the gameplay.

It's very distracting, why did this have to happen?
