Why are Casinos illegal? (And Why they shouldn't be)!

[Cloverlord]

Oi theres a clear difference between rng and betting game currency against other actual players(with the chance of getting scammed)

This exactly.

EVERY game has some level of RNG. That isn't betting, that's not a casino.. that's just what games are. That's all Growtopia is. Yes, you have a "chance" to win, technically, sure.. but that is so not even remotely the same to casinos.

Honestly, I'm surprised they haven't added Lootboxes to the game yet. When you think about it, it'd satisfy those who want gambling back without legalising casinos, and it'd bring crazy profit to Ubisoft. Not that I agree with it, but it would be a smart business move.

Hey guys, So I have been thinking for a while, why are Casinos illegal? It really sort of pisses me off as it comes off greedy from growtopia. I get how “Betting” Is illegal in growtopia and therefore, Casinos are illegal. However this entire strand of logic makes no sense! Everything and I mean EVERYTHING in growtopia is betting. Buying seed packs, is betting, Super fireworks are betting, Holiday packs like valentines are betting, even breaking trees are betting, and countless more examples. How is betting only illegal when Ubisoft doesnt profit? Im sure many other people have commented on this but it just seems so foolish to me.

Ummm. I think you must have had a concussion and lost brain cells my dude.

Business is technically gambling if you look at it from a different perspective.

Please don’t hate on me it’s my opinion.

Because it encourages people to gamble, which might become a real hobby irl

[Recreate]

It should remain illegal, it's bad for the community and the main target audience for the game are still young kids.

[BiteLord]

Because they inculcate the wrong values in players.

Why spend hours farming or profiting when you can bet a diamond lock and win witthin a minute at a casino?

It isn’t fair.

Agreed, but then why add roulette wheels at all...?

The prize system in Growtopia works like gambling

Woah, I'll have to stop you right there.
In gambling, you either gain back or lose all.
While in RNG system in games, you spend currency and STILL get an item, no matter how good or bad it is.
Gambling is like 70/30 chance of losing it all/gaining double, while RNG systems has 100% chance of getting ITEMS,
you just have a lower chance of getting the GOOD ones.
You get nothing from losing the luck portion of gambling.

[Yuemsu]

I agree

So many thousands of players have gotten extremely upset, or quit the game, as a result of casinos (both by being scammed, and simply by losing legitimately) I don't think playing casino is good , plus this game are usually played by underage.

Buying seed packs, is betting, Super fireworks are betting, Holiday packs like valentines are betting, even breaking trees are betting, and countless more examples. ( Plus I dont think these are betting as it is a normal thing when it comes to online game ) Growtopia is not the only one who sell the packs and you get item randomly .


CASINO IS NOT A GOOD THING IN GROWTOPIA , GLAD THAT THEY HAD MAKE THIS kind of betting game ILLEGAL.

why the salt?

You were complaining about why gambling should be legal and you used growtopia’s methods of profiting to justify your point. I’m telling you that business has always been gambling.

So please.
Sit down and be humble.

1. You were hostile when you first conversed with me
2. Your point is still completely un-understandable and illogical...

[Tan Spray]

Agreed, but then why add roulette wheels at all...?

Roulettes were added long before casinos were a thing and the devs never expected it to happen. Theres a whole vegas pack in the shop right now thats all about gambling. They could remove it but it wouldnt stop gambling.

Read what you first said and then look at my point.

Sry for being hostile that’s my bad.

Edit: you said everything in Growtopia is betting.

If Growtopia really wants to remove CASINOS, then they should remove "Roulette Wheel" [ATTACH=CONFIG]216165[/ATTACH]
I think Growtopia just wants people to play casinos but undercover.

Lol this is silly. There are other things to bet on in this game, such as:

-the number of blocks literally any tree will drop
-what a block drops (seed, gem, block, or nothing)

So removing the roulette wheel would be a waste of a perfectly fine item
