    Arguably it is, just not in the conventional way. As a player, you’re spending your time (and money to buy the game) with the hope of winning some dopamine from it. As a developer/studio, you’re gambling time and money to devrlop a game in the hopes that it does well and makes the money back

      By that metric, any business endeavor is gambling.

      By that logic, all entertainment is gambling. Petting a cat is gambling. Hiking is gambling. You’re gambling by replying in this thread.
