What they are doing with the RTP is far beyond ripping off.
Whether it says 84, 87, 90%, basically it is felt at 10-20%.
Especially Novoline is derbste rip-off of the millennium. The images are mostly programmed so that you can see even before the actual stop of the slot that you get no FS.
Player protection my ass, this is just made up out of thin air.
I can understand that GJ needs the revenue of course from the various providers, somehow the platform must be kept alive. But if we are honest, every advertised casino would normally have a 0-1 star rating ..^^
You play partly with a bonus of 100 euros down to 1 euro and get with luck times a hit of 10-20x ... what is that please ? If you get times the FS, you do not even need to talk about any hits... sad how it has all developed.

Loss of funds is not a legitimate reason for a rating. No one is forcing you to play in the down regulated stalls.

Why were no Player protection measures introduced in the casinos? They would make sense there, since you can also lose a lot there. These "protective measures" were introduced where the German state either makes little money (gambling halls) or nothing at all (OCs). Whether the "illegal" OCs pay this 5.3% tax at all is questionable anyway. I haven't read anything yet. Besides, it would be kind of weird. You pay taxes and are considered illegal... why pay taxes then? Makes just zero sense.

The online gambling houses are throttled Online Casinos, where you can gamble little in a short time, but also win correspondingly little. Even if you hit 5,000x on 1€, that is the max. win in some slots. I also don't understand why they set this 1k limit. You can lose 1k per month in legal online casinos. Fine, but does it stop me from losing more? Nope, because then you can go to the local gambling houses without any problems. So what is all this for?

I'm just saying "not entirely..."

I personally see a significant difference between oc and casinos.

I think that only a very small percentage of players in the oc would also go to a casino. It's just not something that's available 24/7, where you just go.
I can of course only speak from my own experience, and would also have times where I gambled much more than would have been good or I wanted. To go to a casino or even just a gambling house has not even remotely occurred to me, even if my set limits were reached.

Sure, you can also gamble in a casino house and yard, but the Risk of habituation / dependence plus constant availability and infinite alternatives of offers despite blocking... I see the online casinos as much more dangerous...
The comparison between a casino and an online casino is often made in the discussion, but I think it's a huge misnomer.

So good support, site setup and payment duration are more crucial to the overall experience for most ?

Read through the previous posts, so your statement is hardly accurate...
Gaming fun is for most the reason why they play at a particular casino. And if that gaming fun is limited by absurd RTPs, that is very much a relevant reason of a rating....

I don't have to read through anything here. Nobody forces you to play in these casinos with reduced RTP. Furthermore, you have such dry spells also in casinos with reasonable RTP's. Nen 100s on a Euro verballern is no art and no rarity.

Right, no one forces me. But I may very well share my experience here and if this experience is confirmed by 90% of the other comments, then it gives me right.

Ne, such idle I had funnier to the extent never elsewhere ^^.
Winning pictures with high factor of licensed casinos I see here strangely also not for months ? Must be then all very strange coincidences with most here

Well, I can only speak for myself. Since I like to play Blackjack, I would do that offline sometimes, but I do not see it to drive 160km for it. The drive alone would be 1.5-2 hours in total (round trip). I can't do it in the Spielos, not even roulette. If I had the opportunity, I would rather go to a casino. Whether I would then always go there I can not say. But I can be sure that the temptation is great to play a few rounds there with 5-10k. I could also do that at the OC, but with a possible payout it takes a) longer and b) with larger sums the casinos then want some documents from you and all that is a test of patience, while I only have to cash out the chips in a casino so that I can get to my money.

That OCs are available 24/7 and therefore more dangerous, I can also understand. Still, this limit doesn't stop anyone from continuing to play. Someone who wants to play and has reached their limit online will definitely continue to play offline.

Probably the crucial difference is whether you have played offline before.

Before I started playing 9 years ago or so, online, I had zero understanding of how to sink money into something like that anyway. Knew only the ready guys who sat in front of it at the kebab and the guys who stood in front of these stores / spielos, which I then once directly dismissed as Asis, their external impression was often not uninvolved 😂
I for my part can therefore exclude for these reasons to go to a gambling house, even if my aversion is perhaps based on prejudice.
And I wouldn't go to the casino anyway.
And certainly not one of the two as a substitute for the oc...

But well, everyone is different and some would certainly do it that way...

I know, I came into contact with gambling only in 2019. Before that I was immune to gambling, but we know how quickly you get sucked into it Today you get me very hard in a gambling house, especially because I know how limited you are there. But I'd be lying if I said the same about a casino.

Nonsense if Gauselmann would still have something to say the arcades would not have such stupid rules ! The state does not want to share here with the private providers and therefore leaves the casinos open and the money of the hardcore who still use arcades and online gaming stores they still take with pleasure

You can easily see that by looking abroad. In Serbia there are also the Merkur machines and there they run without restrictions

Gauselmann has bought the casinos for a spottpreiss because the only losses have written before the gambling treaty


and to the contract was the guy in charge well knowing that after the introduction of the Staatsvertag would reverse again

our gifted politicians have of course been advised by the man in the industry an expert yes if not the expert at all

Sure he may have bought them but casinos still run under state control not private

Most of the private machines in the gambling houses are about to become uneconomical and the gastro boxes will not bring in as much as they used to and I bet the same will happen to the great online gambling houses because they will soon remain empty

People no matter whether addicted or not do not put up with everything and the trend is clearly from I sit here and gamble away everything I have to I try now 10 € and then go because this shit I do not with
