Online Gambling : Next Generation Challenges

[virasog]

A Panel here says that the next generation of online gambling will be more social, engaged and targeted.

This was discussed in the Next.io conference held in New York. They said that online gambling will be more targeted and at the same time it become more of a social activity. Right now we see that an online gambler is gambling in solo with no social connections but this could change in future.

The online gambling companies have to reform themselves as this will be a new demand from the young generation who are coming to online gambling and they need socialization also while gambling (like we used to have in physical gambling).

That's a good news and a bad news, the good thing about that is the players will be able to socialize while gambling but the bad thing about it is that due to socialization many gamblers would risk a lot of money in order to have fake fame in their social circle.

I don't know what impact that type of gambling will have on the minds of the players but I think that by that tag they want to make gambling available on social media platforms, or they might end up creating a new social media platform for gamblers.

If they choose to develop by having VR in gambling, they can probably make their dream of making online gambling more sociable, it's already a thing so they've got no excuse that VR casinos can't be a possibility or a real thing because VR Chat exists and it's been a thing for a long time, you can probably even use that as your basis for creating your dream of a more sociable casinos. The scary thing about their dream is that they're targeting younger generations, you know, the one's that rely on mom and dad's money, I can only imagine what chaos in the household this kind of dream ensues.

Oh yes absolutely, and this is where the metaverse and virtually reality come in, which will completely transform gambling. It would pretty much put an actual human inside of a video game, but for gambling. In a sense a "ready player one" but the gambling version. This is a very interesting thread, i'll have to check out this Next.io footnotes!

Well, those who want to socialize they have the opportunity of the physical casinos where they can go out with friends and and family. I don't like this online gambling space to be crowded with social media and all such stuff. Those who want to enjoy he social circle let them enjoy but why they are insisting on disturbing the calmness of the online gambling space 

If they choose to develop by having VR in gambling, they can probably make their dream of making online gambling more sociable, it's already a thing so they've got no excuse that VR casinos can't be a possibility or a real thing because VR Chat exists and it's been a thing for a long time,

VR in gambling can be an additional feature but it is not a necessity. The cost of gambling may increase if you include the VR as you will need a high internet connection for the VR to be able to function smoothly. Online Casino can introduce this VR functionality but it should not be mandatory so the gamblers who are happy with the current style of gambling, can continue playing with ease.

I think the next generation will need more shielding from us when it comes to online sectors not just gambling in particular. The more technology advances the more problems they are going to run into. The objective of casinos is now to influence the players with a competitive playground more than just the game of chance. Because when you are competing with another player for that "Number 1" spot, your hormones work to push you towards playing more and that is how lose more because this is a casino not a skill based game like Tennis.

We need to be very careful about how our next of kin face these things.

Yes, but physical casinos are not an example of sociability either. No one has ever seen people go alone to the casino, and play slots all the time alone, for example? Or play other games, such as roulette, without crossing words with anyone? As far as I see it, this is part of a battery of measures among which is to give a twist to the Latino market, so that Latinos have a better experience. In the end, this "challenge" and these measures are part of a project they have to earn more money.

[Mrbluntzy]

This idea is good and it will be very fun for gamblers but personally I think it is going to give rise to thousands of distracted youths who will lose interest in their dreams and will all be addicted to gambling more than this generation. That is the advantage that the development will cause. With the normal way of online gambling, there are millions of addicted gamblers and when this new idea is launched it will give room for more addicted gamblers.

The present generation is comfortably using technology to create a huge varieties of distraction through social media and gambling, to the next generation.  This is too sophisticated and not a lot of next generation persons can handle it which could add to the spike rate of gambling addiction among young people.

The social interaction involved  could raise a whole different kind of competition that's not just about winning to making profits but getting famous would also be a competing factor just as we have in the social media platforms i.e. FB, X, IG, etc.

I read the article but I don't understand what are they going to do to make gambling more social. By the way, it's very ironic how he sees the lack of young generation in his casino as a bad thing. Basically, he says that they should do everything to attract young generation or they won't step their foot in casino and he thinks that's bad. Insane!

Future casinos will probably be in meta verse but I don't think online casinos today lack socialization. You can chat with many gamblers in many online casino, you can also chat and interact with dealers on Live blackjack/roulette tables, it's especially good how you can move from table to table and interact with many dealers and players.
From this article, it looks like his worry is that casinos rarely attract young generation and thinks that the lack of socialization is the problem, he is out of his mind.

[Marvelman]

I'm not so sure about this.  It seems to me like making gambling more social could get folks, especially younger ones, thinking it's no big deal - just another way to chill with your buddies.  And this targeted stuff rubs me the wrong way too; feels kinda manipulative, like they're trying to exploit on weaknesses to keep people hooked.   

Now look I aint saying gambling can't be a fun time.  but we also gotta admit it's got a dark side. and  It can take over your life real quick if you let it.  So I'd be worried about anything that tries to make it seem like no big thing.  We have to think hard before going down that road, ask ourselves if its worth playing with fire like that.

That's the kind of innovation that is necessary nowadays. To remain in the competition, they have to make something extraordinary to introduce and that will result to a better services to us gamblers. Since we are already living in the digital world, mostly especially gambling are already done online, so it's easier for them to innnovate. With this kind of innovation, it will make them more profitable as it would be easier to attract gamblers, the number young gamblers are increasing as we are able to easily adopt, from traditional gambling to this new introduce platforms, it will make everything smooth and enjoyable.

As of now, I am still into traditional gambling although I gambled online already, but for sure i would eventually try the new ones for new experience.

[Jating]

As a traditional gamblers, or players who love to go to land base casinos, and I will quote the article,

He used the hypothetical example of a customer five years from now deciding he or she doesn't want to walk around a casino floor looking for a particular slot game. Instead, wearing virtual reality glasses or a headset, that player may say “I want to look through my goggles and play it right here.”

Yes, this could be what I wanted to see and just like what those CEO's are talking a different experience like socializing in online games. VR might be used in the future for the experience. And they know it, it's a billion dollar industries, and again base on the articles, some demographics are being targeted, like Latinos and women by this gambling companies.

[Kakmakr]

I do not know if anybody knows about Four-player chess (also known as four-handed chess) is a family of chess variants played with four people. ==> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-player_chess .... this game made a 1 on 1 game more sociable and more fun.

Online gambling can do the same with their games, where people can start to play Slots against the "house" in teams. Very similar to multiple players trying to defeat a single "Boss" (like you see in multiplayer dungeon type games)

A lot of online casino sites have their own "Chat" facility, which brings in the social aspect of gambling. (This is very moderated and also very toxic at times)

Well this there plan can be two sided mostly on the young generation standing to be their target sociable is good but it will curse allot hustle of defeat, it can divert many dream and skills away because when it's not properly control by an individual it turn into addiction like today social has done allot to our youth.

It can also increase cyber crime as people will think on how to hack users account if it function like others social media already in existence.

Are gamblers currently not targeted? then who is the target? I think someone who decides to gamble then he is part of the right target. If they want to target a certain segmentation, there will be KYC or spying to find out the activities of gamblers

Currently there is also a chatroom available which allows gamblers to interact with other gamblers, I think that is enough, or do they have another breakthrough?

Gambling on social media is a two-edged sword: it can be entertaining and interactive, but it can also lead to overspending and addiction. Gambling on social media, like traditional gambling, comes with risks that should not be underestimated.

The good news is that several social media companies have taken steps to mitigate these hazards, including age verification, responsible gaming regulations, and self-exclusion tools. However, let's be honest, these solutions aren't perfect, and they don't solve the underlying issue of societal

[Crypt0Gore]

It's good that better sociality is coming into gambling and that's my expectation with digital identity and also the metaverse, but I don't like the idea of targeting the audience, I don't want any improvement from this side, it's fine presently, we don't see ads on TV and our kids are safer, if the audience becomes more targetted in the future then it will be a mess.

Many will be led astray because of gambling, and many will lose money and lives because of gambling, nah we are fine and no new targeting is welcome, leave things as they are now, we already have too many addicts around the world, and many homes have been broken already, millions and millions have been lost.

Apart from advancing gambling in such a way that it's easier to invite friends and families that are far away into your circle, through VR or metaverse I don't want anything else, this will be a big fun check.

[EarnOnVictor]

Well, that is their opinion but I see things differently. Gambling has revolved enough to this level we witnessed now and it deserves accolades. With the latest technology being used with gambling and the already social relevance it gets both online and offline, I do not think it can do more than this unless for larger population is attracted one way or another. You would hardly see anyone who is an adult who would not know about gambling both online and online, and many competitions/contests are even being set up and publicised for marketing reasons regarding this, and casinos have a lot of promoters and influencers just like any other businesses you may think of. What else do they want?

Well, I always know that people like to talk, after all, it will be disgraceful in such an event for you not to say something. Whether ugly or not, you spit out something to save your head, so I don't blame anyone. Nonetheless, the only development/advancement I expect would happen in gambling will be AI-inclined, anything aside this may not be significant.

[xandriel]

Lol, if we want to make gambling more social and popular, we should have something like gambling education (based on sex education) to teach people to play for fun but responsibly.  #ResponsibleGaming
