ethical and psychological implications of microtransaction systems in mobile games, particularly in free-to-play models. The study examines how microtransactions, which allow players to purchase in-game items, cosmetics, or advantages, influence player behavior, spending habits, and overall satisfaction. Drawing on ethical theory and psychological models of consumer decision-making, the paper explores how microtransactions contribute to the phenomenon of “pay-to-win,” exploitation of vulnerable players, and player frustration. The research also evaluates the psychological impact of loot boxes, virtual currency, and in-app purchases, offering recommendations for ethical monetization practices that prioritize player well-being without compromising developer profitability.</p> <a href="https://blog-176590343565.mit-edu.top/post/9437615280" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/14.jpg" alt="Mobile Games as Cultural Bridges: Examining the Localization of Global Narratives" title="Mobile Games as Cultural Bridges: Examining the Localization of Global Narratives" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Steven Mitchell</strong> <span>2025-02-01 published post</span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="post-entry d-md-flex small-horizontal mb-5"> <div class="me-md-5 thumbnail mb-3 mb-md-0"> <a href="https://blog-176590343565.mit-edu.top/post/2694587103"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/12.jpg" alt="Evaluating Gas Fee Optimization Techniques for High-Volume Blockchain Games" title="Evaluating Gas Fee Optimization Techniques for High-Volume Blockchain Games" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-2694587103.mit-edu.top/post/2694587103/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-01</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-176590343565.mit-edu.top/post/2694587103">Evaluating Gas Fee Optimization Techniques for High-Volume Blockchain Games</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper investigates the use of mobile games and gamification techniques in areas beyond entertainment, such as education, healthcare, and corporate training.
