It's not wrong.
It's just that - for some people - those gatcha games are their only source of happiness, so they spend money to get access to more things in it that will bring them more happiness.
It's a form of gambling with those kind of games, and it's a slippery slope.

Cos you encounter the argument of, "If I spend just a little, then I'll get more out of the game. Ah, now I've spent something, I have to be more invested in this game. Ah, I've become more invested in this game, let's spend more in it."

As for other things, well I can understand paying artists for the art you commissioned them to make, since you are paying them for the work they put into it, but I can't get my head around NFTs.

Me neither. Like, I will absolutely pay for a full game that gives me hours of entertainment if I ever get around to actually playing but I don't spend money in-game. Just has no appeal to me.
@SailusGebel Okay, why am I wrong? I want to know so I can understand. @Nahrenne I agree and I also can't get my head around NFTs. @yansusustories Agreed. If I paid a fair amount of money for a game then I expect it to be a fully accessible game.
Same, when my classmates asked why I don't spend just $10 monthly for the CCG like everyone else, I gave him two answers:
1. I am poor. Still am.
2. Unless the CCG give me a physical copy of their card for spending, I will not spend a dime.
Ps. When the server went down, it reaffirmed my cause.
That reminds me of a gatcha game I played a few years ago that had guilds you joined. One of my guildmates said she'd spent over $1000 on the game, and she'd only been playing it for three months at the time...
I hadn't spent a single penny on it and quit after a year cos it was very much becoming a game where you'd pretty much only progress or do well if you spent money.
*sigh*
It also didn't help that I was in an American server cos there were no UK ones, so all the events were happening when it was around 02:00 and 04:00 for me.
