Videoslots RTP 87% Merkur+ELK

[ronak04]

Hello,
is it just me, or is every one having an astonishing 87-88% RTP on every Merkur+ELK Studio Game? This is unbelievable. I asked the chat, and the guy told me it’s 93%, which is clearly not true. I’m from Germany, we got screwed already this year, deposit limits, no autospins, 5 seconds in between every spin, 1€ max bet, no live casino and so on… is only Germany having this rtps? I’m shocked. Might as well just burn my money

Its most likely only for Germans (atleast for now), to counter the taxes implemented for that market.

Edit: I cant see Merkur slots, but ELK slots are 95-96% for me (Swedish market)

87% What the actual fuck!!! Give it a year or two and we will see providers running at an rtp of 50%

I wouldnt be surprised at this point its got that bad.

If they continue to reduce RTPs like this then there will come a point where the average player will notice they’re not getting as many small to medium wins that keep their playing time going anywhere as long. Online casino revenues will start to drop significantly forcing them to either reverse some of these decisions, or go out of business.

This must be creating an opportunity for a casino to commence a marketing campaign to educate players on RTP, and to advertise that they run with the highest RTPs across all games.

Yeah but you know, we actually pay the taxes already on every spin, no joke. We pay 5% extra on every spin, so a 1€ spin is actually a 1,05€ spin every time. Unbelievable

and the fun is, 1 Euro is max Bet.....
All legal Casinos turned into a kind of "Scammers" for Germans due to legal regulations...
The really rouge ones will be happy to fill this hole..
There is no more reason to play as a German in a licensed/regulated online Casinos..sad to say

Yeah, it’s ridiculous. It’s a farce, crazy to think about that Germany came up with these regulations to control the unregulated gambling - while now forcing players to play in unregulated casinos. Just one of the 6 critical things they changed is enough to kill every regulated casino. Also I am still having a hard time understanding why they just applied the rules for physical slot machines to online slots. Physical slot machines had exactly the rules we now have online before. Germany just sucks with everything regarding internet. Guess that’s what happens when some old idiots that google google.com create new internet laws
