Can't be nearly as bad as any pachinko parlor that I've been near. It sounds like a machine shop full of circular saws.
I harbor the belief (likely unjustified) that the hearing loss resulting in hanging out there is as bad as gambling addiction issues. I don't know how people stand it, or why they'd want to.
The bright lights and noise levels in casinos are deliberate as they impair rational thought. Study after study on "cognitive load" show that if your brain is being stimulated or worked in one domain it impairs good decision making in other domains.
I'm sure the operators of these places are aware of that too.
What's funny is that with USA casinos, the noise level is loud, but not bothersome to me personally. AFAIK, this is intended to create a "lively" atmosphere.
Whereas the pachinko parlors are far beyond the "lively" level, and well into the "where is my OSHA-approved hearing protection?" level.
