Putting aside the merits of the microtransaction model, the method of drawing players back in, day after day, is also dubious. Video games are a form of entertainment. Once a player feels obligated to log into a game simply to keep a streak going and claim a daily allotment of benefits, like Genshin Impact’ s daily check-in rewards system , the activity shifts from being a fun hobby to something conspicuously like a

Gaming fans are no strangers to accruing wealth in Grand Theft Auto games to purchase clothes and cars. Despite the ubiquity of game mechanics that mimic a job in some way, free-to-play games manage to feel more like a job than anything else. Papers, Please put the player in the role of an immigration official checking documents, and House Flipper fans struggle to satisfy unreasonable clients , but both of these games are completely voluntary. If a player does not feel like rejecting passports or vacuuming up roaches on any given day, they can simply play something e

Video games continue to experiment with profit models. Some rumors suggest PlayStation will put advertisements in free games. While this could be distracting for Resource some, and rob players of immersion, it might be preferable if those games move away from enticing players into logging in daily just to see in-game ad banners. Services like Game Pass and PlayStation Plus Extra could be seen as encouraging daily play, simply so subscribers feel they are getting their money’s worth, but that is a far cry from the direct attendance tracking approach of free-to-play tit

Based on their success, free-to-play games are here to stay. For players who notice their daily logins feel more habitual than enjoyable, it might be worth examining whether a game that dictates their personal schedule is worth playing consistently.
