Numerous lawsuits in prosecution identify the systems that have been used in building the modern games that trigger the addictive behaviour amongst the players.
Modern-day games encourage players to spend a certain amount to spend longer durations in the game. For example, they propel users to purchase certain items in order to upgrade their skills and longevity in the game.
In other scenarios, the purchases are recommended if the player wishes to attain a level of satisfaction while playing. Certain game models make it difficult for the users to with the game without spending real-time money, which has also been defined as a “pay-to-win” model.
In-game upgrades are being pushed to the youngsters, turning them impulsive to make a buying decision under peer pressure to continue with the game. Also, psychological factors such as placing time limits on certain items or motivating the players to be the first amongst their friends to have them, result in the impulsive gaming behaviour.
Another important aspect that woos the addictive gaming behaviour is going deep into understanding the psychology of the players. By studying their preferences, available balance, and habits during the game, the developers design offers that greatly influence their buying behaviour.
There is a popular microtransaction, known as the ‘loot box’, that helps players make repetitive purchases of rare items that may look like rewards to them. Since this limited range of items fascinates the in-game players, they keep on gambling for acquiring them, ignoring the addictive behaviour that it develops within them.
