Counterpoint, I am a high volatility guy and I am at peace with it. I am not playing for an hour of entertainment, I am buying a lottery ticket with better odds and I size my bankroll for that.
I set aside $200 a week, expect most sessions to go to zero, and accept that the value is in the rare $500 to $1000 hit. Two months ago a high vol game paid me $840 on a $2 spin and that one session covered six weeks of losses.
If you cannot stomach long dry stretches it is not for you, no argument. But RTP and volatility are different things, you can have a high RTP game that is also high volatility, so do not lump them together when you read the game info.
