Are you a Hunt: Showdown fan or, God forbid, Escape From Tarkov? Then I have GOOD news for you. In general, in multiplayer games you can often find gambling elements, because they are an important part of the spirit of ""competition"", but the concept of Extraction Shooter where the player goes on a raid and takes out a reward very much brings the game closer to betting and casinos, which even the developers themselves do not hide.
Let's talk about the psyche of a player in risky shooters, the triggers of game addicts and where it will all lead us in a couple of years. And yes, there will be no gachas / loot boxes here, it's just about the gameplay ^^
