Revealing the True Nature of 100% Guaranteed 'Buy-Back' Events

This is indeed the common modus operandi for these '100% guaranteed' events. The essence of a guaranteed win mechanism in commercial activities is to shift participants' focus away from probabilities using a pity system: * Imbalanced Prize Pool Structure: While it seems like everyone wins, the proportion of high-value prizes exceeding the participation cost (e.g., gems) is extremely low, with the vast majority receiving minor rewards or low-value virtual items. * Disguised Buy-Back Mechanism: By consuming player-accumulated tokens or gems through events, it reduces overall economic inflation and paves the way for future spending demands. * Psychological Trap: Exploiting the 'never go home empty-handed' mentality lowers participants' guard and loss aversion, thereby increasing the number of participation attempts. Viewing events rationally and considering them as a resource recovery mechanism rather than a profit-generating channel can indeed help avoid unnecessary expectations and expenditure.
