If slots disappeared tomorrow, which game to you think will replace it?

[Bitinity]

Should we imagine something that the possibility to happen is close to zero? I would not be surprised if there will be another thread later asking "how if sports betting disappeared" lol. Come on guys, lets just talk about more reasonable topic related to gambling. Sorry to say but this one is unreasonable for me at least,I will not imagine about it but if I have to answer it then I will say that no other games will replace slot.

The number one casino game is undoubtedly slot, a new person in gambling will most probably go for slot and enjoy it most and I know that there is no way slot can be removed from casino games. But we are just assuming and having fun with this topic so in the absence of slot I believe that sports bet is the next dominant games in gambling. For people that are not into skill based games will likely go for roulette, this is just my assumption although there are other pure luck games that are interesting. Gambling should be about having fun with amount that we are comfortable to loose and there is endless fun in a casino.

I don't know exactly what will replace slot games if they disappear one day, but I think sports betting will become one of the most popular alternatives. However, I myself am more into card games such as poker, because I like playing poker even if there is no money involved, but at least I have basic poker skills and understanding. But I think slot games will never disappear, even though we are discussing what would happen if they did.

But I could also see that sports betting might take over, as we all know that there are really big sporting events all throughout the calendar year like Football and NBA or basketball. So there is a big possibility that it will take over and casinos still going to survived without slot games.

If we have to vote I think I'll always go for sports betting it's been an amazing game so far with varieties of sports activities and games that keeps the fun alive,so personally it'll definitely replace slots games.The number of persons that tends to go for slots games ain't much due to the high pressing rates of loses but fir sports betting you can always manuevre your way with some strategies and all that. Reasons there's much dominance over slots and any other games.

It seems to me that they will be replaced by computer games. They may be called something different and redesigned so they don’t so clearly associate with slot machines, but the principle will still be almost the same. For slot machines to disappear, it’s not enough to simply ban them by law, people would have to lose interest in gambling. And as long as there are plenty of players, I don’t think they will ever disappear.

You know, slot machines have gone from being automated-mechanical with a lever and buttons to being completely digital with screens to tap on. Maybe one day we will see machines with games like dice and crash that are being played online, standing next to slots (maybe such machines already exist, I dont know). And maybe one day, they will start to push out original slots. Generation of gamblers would change popularity of games. I think today youth dont play slots at all.

[FFrankie]

I think the slots would be reinvented to be played somehow but in a new manner. Maybe a die spins each reel instead of a button doing all the reels

As the title suggest, if by chance slot games disappeared tomorrow, which do you think will replace it and why?

For me I think I will go with live dealer games such as baccarat or black jack or maybe roulette.

But I could also see that sports betting might take over, as we all know that there are really big sporting events all throughout the calendar year like Football and NBA or basketball. So there is a big possibility that it will take over and casinos still going to survived without slot games.

It's not impossible, but it must be said that it would be difficult to happen, because slots are one of the biggest sources of income for casinos. But if that really happened, just like you, i would probably focus more on sports betting than anything else, even though there are many other games that can also get the adrenaline pumping, i would probably only play them occasionally, just to pass the time while waiting for the clubs to compete.

Gambling Will always remain relevance, people will not stop having fun playing, but if by any chance a particular game stopped, gamblers will always have enough reasons to play other games a d continue in having fun, because this is all about being entertained and having fun is not limited to playing a particular game, we can derive satisfaction from a number of games of our choice as long as we are interested in playing them.

Read my comment again, maybe you will understand what I wanted to say... and maybe these "hypothetical discussions" are more suited for "off-topic" than for "gambling discusions". Since we are not really gambling, we are "imagining things around".

Hypothetical or not it is related to gambling. Because of that you are mistaken and have missed the point of this thread. Next time focus on the topic and try to write less in an off-topic way. It will do you good.

Aside from slot game, the game I find my self interested to is roulette. I like the roulette game because it easy to play, very entertaining and I get more lucky when playing the game. Crash game is not an option because the risk in that game is very high, and the outcome in the end is above being lucky. The crash game can be hacked or manipulated by the casino. Sometimes I feel the algorithm is set to understand how patiently wait for the game to crash. I also fee the longevity of the plane varies from user to user.

Sure we can consider this too but the topic is more about what would people do in general. Just because you or I like some specific game and maybe don't even like crash games, that does not mean that people would pick roulette or poker if slots disappeared. We have to analyze the case based on the features of the game that is being questioned which are slots in this case and on the reasons why people play them. Slots and roulette are very different. I would never tell someone to play roulette without first gaining some knowledge about the game, but slots anyone can start playing now for a dollar and have some fun. 

The only possible reason slots can disappear tomorrow if the government declare if slots is illegal, because slots was the biggest game, in every casinos there's always slots.

The question is now how slots can disappear or whether they can disappear. You are missing the point of this thread too, but to indulge your point I can state that even a government ban of slots would not make them go away really. People would still play in crypto slots or underground games of slots. I have encountered slot machines in places where they are not allowed to be many times in my life.

You have already answered the question by yourself, apart from these few you mentioned I think  sport game will replace it  because sport bet has been one of the oldest of all, and if anything makes the casino game like slot and any other one to disappear. Automatically sport bet will replace. But if it's only slot that disappear the. Backarat and black jack will replace.

But I could also see that sports betting might take over, as we all know that there are really big sporting events all throughout the calendar year like Football and NBA or basketball. So there is a big possibility that it will take over and casinos still going to survived without slot games.

Although no one knows what what will happen, but if eventually anything happens then any of this listed betting game could replace.

Slot should be one of the most popular casino game which I don't believe will disappear anytime. But should that happen, I think the closest game is roulette. Roulette may not completely replace slot but they gave the same sensation especially with the sound system. There are are other custom games that are casino specifics that can also replace slot, I think casinos will go that direction.

The advantage that slots give is its convenience- anyone and everyone can play it even if you don't understand the rules! As long as the screen flashes a jackpot or a huge win, then you're good to go! Basically, playing slots is a no-brainer; everything is automatic until or unless you increase or decrease the amount of money you bet per spin.

Assuming that slots suddenly vanished from existence, I do believe that people would be into sports-betting due to its rising popularity. While roulette and other wheel games may also be on the spotlight, I am confident that sports-betting would be the new norm from that point.

Gambling Will always remain relevance, people will not stop having fun playing, but if by any chance a particular game stopped, gamblers will always have enough reasons to play other games a d continue in having fun, because this is all about being entertained and having fun is not limited to playing a particular game, we can derive satisfaction from a number of games of our choice as long as we are interested in playing them.

You are right but you have to stick to what is asked by OP.

If slots suddenly disappeared, then I do believe that sports-betting would take over. If not, then some gambling companies would find a way to revive or at least create something similar to what slots do in order to preserve its nature being convenient and easy to play with.

Relaxation under the pretext of entertainment is one of the human needs. There are various forms of games however we should not get into bad habits. Majority may not know how easily addiction can be developed though at first it might have been just fun. We should be capable of differentiating between real entertainment and the practises which might even damage our budget or our psyche as there are so many gaming opportunities offered.

Classic games will take over, such as dice, crash, limbo, and others and most of them will also switch to sports betting, because usually residents do not want to wait for long results there to play and there are results so in my opinion classic games will take over

You got a high five from me. There are certainly some terms that can not be put to panic because it is unimaginable of how it can come to pass or reality.
I said it that slots is an game that literally got casino famous and casino's being a business industry can not just wake up a day and decides to delist the game types that is most interesting and most profitable to their sites. On no just reason will that happen. Unless there is a more interesting casino game that has the potential to replace the slot. In short, even if there is any to replace slots, slots will remain but will only rather not remain the top leading casino game types.

Sports betting is already on my list of favorites. I love sports betting more than gambling with casino slot games, and I also enjoy analyzing and commenting on various sports betting spots.
So in my case it is very natural that if casino slot games disappear completely one day, my first choice would be to replace them with sports betting and then maybe I can put some live dealer games on my exploring list.

[wiss19]

I think it is better if we also nominate games that has the same level as of slots? So yeah, it must not only be live / live-dealer games, or sports betting but casino games too. Crash is valid but the one that is floating on my head when I read this thread is the Dice game. Both Crash and Dice games are once dominating in the crypto gambling world when there are no or only less casino that has slot games on them.

And if there are slots, those slots are usually originally produced by the casinos themselves. Sportsbetting seems to be on another world of gambling, while live dealer games are usually a part of a casino. That gives us a couple of option to choose from, therefore, a casino is definitely going to survive even without slot games (original, or those that came from the providers) .

Black roulette not being a slot game in this context would attract gamers to something else quite very close to slot games, dependant on chance, little or no skill required, additional options like betting on from 1-12, choosing red and black, picking 0, to improve chances since choosing amongst over 30 numbers where a rolling ball will stop weakens the reality of winning, the gamer could bet in a much possible ways. Yet it's more just slot than anything else and it'll give slot players better responsibilities other than repeatedly pushing buttons.

[Julien_Olynpic]

I find it hard to imagine why slots would disappear. What could possibly cause this? Perhaps there are bans in some country. But on a global scale, I think this is completely unrealistic. But if we do accept that this did happen, their place will most likely be taken by games that are as similar as possible. Most likely, roulette or similar games. These are games where you don't have to think, but rather click, spin, or spin something, and the outcome is determined relatively quickly.

[Outhue]

There are too many slots games available for them all to disappear at once, it is never going to happen.
The only way that slots can kinda die is lack of players based, because there are many people that plays slots games and it's very popular than the majority of other casino games.

Sports bet already have the attention it needed, sports bets will always be very close to slots in terms of popularity, all you have to do is make some research about the most popular gamblings, sport and slots will take the lead, one doesn't need to disappear for the other to prosper.
