Really, "pathetic levels of gouging"
I gather you are not even old enough to work, because once you are, you might have some consideration for how much time and money is spent building a game like this.
Not to mention you can play the COMPLETE game WITHOUT SPENDING a cent.
Entitled...
I bought Overwatch when it came out. It was 40 bucks. For those 40 bucks, I've gotten the COMPLETE game as it was back then, every single update since then, and a lootbox every single level (+3 a week from the arcade game modi). I'm level 650 or so, meaning for 40 bucks I've probably gotten 800-900 loot boxes containing dozens of skins for the 28 heroes the game has right now.
If you drop 40 bucks in here what do you get? According to the dude who spent way more than 40 bucks on them, not much.

It's always the same with cosmetics based transactions, people want them but they don't want to pay for them, it's a F2P game without a P2W system. That's already a good deal! The skins don't make you a better player, stop peacocking and just take what you can get...

People want perticular skins. But they can't buy those skins because the cosmetics are locked behind a RNG psuedo gambling system. People have no issues with paying for cosmetics in F2p. They just want to be able to choose what they're buying.

Well, you ruined your own argument yourself ^^
People want skins and they're willing to pay for it, but... for it! Not for a 0.001% chance of getting what they're looking for.
And you can spit all you want on the "non paying" players, but at the very second their number will start to significantly decrease, this game will start dying.
So it's for their best interest to deal asap with the cheater problem AND their greedy bussiness model. Not even sure they'll be able to keep it, lootboxes already were forbiden in the past.
Î'd say, let's wait March, they'll reveal their true face with their season pass.

Yep same experience, i never felt dragged by Overwatch to over spend unless i really feel like to or i just don't have time to play and want to get some specific skin. This game founders pack sucks, it's so bad.

How long will you realize a free-to-play game always costs ALOT more than a paid game in long run? lolz Accept this fact and move on.
