Loot Boxes
i think its pretty evident to the player that the loot boxes are designed to take earned credits off the player, over the past 10 years video games in general have rather than make the progression feel more rewarding they actually make it much less rewarding in order to keep players game time up and i feel like this is a massive issue for gaming in general, it has stopped me playing so many games because i simply do not feel rewarded for my efforts, its clearly a method to get people either stuck in the grind or to encourage purchases, i think maybe sorting the loot boxes by item type would be much better, a stickers only box, a skate board box containing decks, grip tape, trucks and wheels, a clothing box and an accessories box, it would make the whole thing feel like less of a rip off and still maintain the random element.
