I used to collect everything growing up, they all came in random packs and nobody complained...
Don't get me wrong some companies are doing these boxes in a very rip off manner but I don't see it in apex.
For free you get close to 50 boxes to fill out your characters, that's plenty and if you want a few more put some money in, seems fair to me.

@cr41g1690let's use herloom as example, It took tons of people streamers are proof close to 300 to 500 of loot boxes to get the herloom set for wraith{small fact after 500 boxes you 100% get the set}...hmmmmm lol, so that mean they gotta spend 100's the way they got it set up is rigged so u don't get the crap you want or get common types constantly it's part of the algorithm..{plus the addictive and kid aspects to getting these boxes}..100s of dollars went to getting those legendary items but get common almost all the time that's a scam Alot of what these company's do is ripping off people of all ages and levels... Then if you can't get any legendary you gotta spend 20$ to buy { 1 } legndary skin??? For 1 skin ok EA, and must have gold coins to buy it. That's consumerism corruption for a in game item that for cosmetics... some legendary skins have better iron sights alittle too ... EA doing this with all there games is not ok! gotta research this stuff bro it's a gambling and addictive system for everyone and targeted to others and it's a exploitive way to make them millions and give us there half * work .... They just now upgraded the 50 box system now so it alittle alittle better now... But all the true apexers from day one and got 100 before that mostly got common crap I'll example me, I got 2 legendary item the whole time and around 4 useable rares 3-4 unusable rares rest commons { some weren't even skins xD }, so they gotta spend money to get the skins ....I'm fine with how it works, with loot boxes and in game currency but when it's basically set up to you gotta spend a unreasonable amount of money to get anything you really want in game is not how it should be. Just go watch one of those link they explain it better, even If I think I did lol. I post this for community not just me, it's exploitive and made to make them rich CEO Williams 800million rn dam that's also capalisim witch is also part of it. You know bro
All I'm saying give more reasonable prices or Alot more rewards for the price you pay of Real World Money instead of a cupcake or 2, and still continue the in game missions that actually give u decent stuff like the Hunt event - xXCA_RageXx7 years agoRising Veteran

Any lootbox system is a straight ripoff, especially if there is no form of being able to buy what you want straight up at any time beyond the "weekly featured shop". They are designed to incentivize you to gamble in the lootbox system in hopes you either get the item you want or get enough of the random materials to be able to buy one. It's shady crap and it's time we stop supporting these garbage practices.

Why is it shady? That's the system some games use. Pay for a choice or pay for a surprise..Like @Huntinwabits said...Don't want it, don't buy it...plain n' simple. Nobody is getting ripped off 'cause they like that format. Some whine cause they can't choose exactly what they want. Well tough S@@@, That's the ways it is and that's how the game is implementing it. Is your mother gambling when she buys you that box of cereal with a "SURPRISE INSIDE"? 🤔
@Katsura_KokoroThey might possibly offer that in ranked as well...who knows...it might change

If you can't see how lootbox systems are shady, then I can't help you bud.
