@LoganX1 That's the lame excuse EA is giving for lootboxes but there is a CLEAR pattern between loot boxes and gambling effects on the brain. There's a reason more and more countries ban them. Unless you believe the goverment of those countries have a secret agenda and personnal vendetta gainst mean loot boxes for some reason *puts tin foil hat on*.
PS, it will stick. They are seeing tangible scientific proof of the effects, it's not just some hypothesis.

Nope. All of these things focus around 'kids'. Yet don't put the blame on the parents for not overseeing what they're kids are buying WITH THEIR MONEY.
The only issue is when MTX becomes Pay 2 Win. Cosmetic loot boxes have little to no in-game value. Just because it's RNG doesn't make it gambling.
Again, gambling implies 'Money for Money' and the chance to actually lose money. It can't be considered a loss if it's a purchased transaction.
Even if what you get is low or no in-game value (which is subjective) you never actually lose more than you put in.
- Victory lootbox is bad idea for devs as some players would never ever have to buy lootboxes, meaning no profit from them in already f2p game. If it would be b2p yeah why not or at least every level.
@LoganX1 No, those effects also happen on adults as well (ever heard of "whales"?). With which scientifical proof can you say that the "gambling" effects only happen on children? Do you seriously believe adults can not suffer from being addicted to it? How naive can you be? You can't just dismiss scientifical data like that (proof that lootboxes have the same effect on the brain), you sound exactly like an anti-vaxxer lol
There's a reason the legislation regarding lootboxes is becoming more and more severe in more and more countries.- Notice it's the countries that have always had civil right issues.
You're not seeing that in the US, UK, or countries where civil rights and the right of choice aren't an issue.Nice deflect.
I say loot boxes are bad because they have similar effects on the brain as gambling and you change the subject to something else trying to make me forget you can't counter that argument.
Only shills want loot boxes. Paying directly to unlock a skin without having to ABSOLUTELY get it by chance from a loot box would be fine (after all, they need to make money, true) but forced to go through loot boxes as the only possible way is not ok.
