As a mechanic, loot boxes are an inherently good idea. Rewarding the player with random shit for the game; that doesn't impact gameplay or force them to cough up more money.

It's also sad that there are people who defend this greed and arrogance with everything they have. It doesn't matter how beautiful a game looks or how much effort has been put into it if the main mechanic is aimed at completely stealing from all age groups, i.e. the players, and getting their money out of them through these casino tactics.

And if you need to put money in it, make it at least refundable (or have actual physical value, like trading card game, to resell) and make the chance to get it at least fair (minimum chance of 5%, if after 20-30 times you still dont pull it, you can trade the "lost" prizes to the one you want)

Yup, exactly. A couple of points I'll add. 1) 2K has started raising their prices for next-gen games by $10, yet still treat them like casino simulators. 2) 2K, EA, Activison, and Ubisoft all come to mind when I think of games having 37 different editions. These range from $60 - $200, and how often are these "special editions" just a couple of ingame cosmetics, team packs or ingame currency? Things that are bare minimum but people will shell out an extra $20 for these editions. The biggest one though is obviously the cost of distribution being significantly lowered. We're quickly moving into a digital download world and even have two nextgen consoles that are digital only. These companies aren't doing it out of need but greed. They'll gloat about making $1 billion in MTX, then lay off 1500 employees. Greedy, soulless cunt fucks.

You have a very valid point, the natural deflation that comes with gains in efficiency, to offset natural inflation (roughly 3% per year). Hence, when you look at video games costing $40 back in 1977, it would be worth about $140 today in real terms. To further expand on your point, you could also see that not just distribution, but the cost of the physical hardware (cartridge), was SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive. Costs were cut dramatically in the mid to late 90s when the industry switched to CDs, which costs mere pennies, yet the $50 retail pricing was maintained. They used gambling mechanics and I do agree with this video and others who say this is basically anti-competitive business practice.

As far as the loot box system in Siege, the standard one can’t be bought by real money, only currency you get in game, now the special ones you can get with real money or in game currency. But at least you see what you get before with the special packs, but you can only guarantee to get what you want if you buy it all

im happy with that system knowing i dont have to buy the packs. Getting duplicates suck but im getting the packs for free most of the time or just playing the game. The newer packs you need real money but get a new character, get other cosmetics, some credits back, boosters and free packs if you complete more of the battle pass. I pay because i love playing the game, not because ubi forced me to get the battle pass

I like lootboxes when theyre not intrusive and for a game where items matter. Like, CS:GO or Rocket League (until they removed them, of course) It's always fun and nice to drop 10 bucks on a game every now and then, and open a few crates and hopefully get something good. If you don't, it's still fun. If you do, it's ecstatic. The whole "LOOTBOX BAD" thing is not exactly true in essence, it's just that companies got a little too comfortable by pushing them. Lootboxes are also a fantastic way to increase the lifespan or individual player longevity. Whilst I personally like goals that aren't RNG, it's also a bit fun to spice things up and have your goal be in an RNG system, but in this instance, it cannot be paid, or at least optional. Say, for example, Mass Effect 3. In Mass Effect 3, the lootboxes weren't cosmetic, yet they weren't entirely intrusive. They added a way to have endless progression for free, or for a monetary price, but it didn't matter really. It was fun and it extended the amount of time poured into said game. Without this fantastic system, the game would've been more boring, because there would be no grind. On the topic of grinding, it also, in essence, not bad. It sets a goal for the player to follow, which leads to more motivation to play said game. Wanting that armor set, weapon, or skin, is another reason to keep playing. Without the grind, a lot of games would not have player bases.

Wanna talk pay to play? Final Fantasy on mobile. I had people in my guild (KOTK) that spent upwards of $5000+ ON A PHONE GAME. There were even players that admittedly spent upwards of $20,000. I was unfortunate enough to get sucked into it and spent about $800 to get to tier 4 and it was effective for about a month before T5 dropped, then things got dicey. Then they dropped T6 and if you weren't a healthy T5, you had to hide under bubble shields every night or hide your kingdom really well. That's when I gave up. I disbanded all of my armies and let the realm "owners" wreck me. Uninstalled the game about 2 years ago and haven't looked back. The worst part? I never spent time playing final fantasy ever in my life. It was me somehow getting involved enough to join a guild and meeting other people that made me get sucked in. I couldn't stop checking my phone at least once an hour even if I knew the realm was calm at the time. Forget about it when an RVR even was happening. I basically had my phone on standby constantly for 12 hours and would literally set alarms throughout the night to make sure my kingdom was okay on the nights I didn't have shields. It's crazy how these games can suck you in. Even when you had no affiliation with that franchise to begin with. These mobile games need to be put under the scope even more because now we're talking about games you carry with you everywhere and check like Facebook. Like I said, first hand experience with how quickly you can get sucked in even if you never took part in that franchise before. I never played final fantasy before that.

They've become the middleman we do not need and if they don't stop their bullshit, eventually they will become irrelevant. If more and more developers are able to go independent like CD Red, Bungie, & Platinum have, companies like EA & Activision are finished. Sadly it'll take who knows how many years to get there, if any us even live long enough to see it happen, but it's an inevitability.

This is why I love digital extremes. They implemented this system into warframe but quickly removed it after some dude spent a shit tonne of money in the game. I heard they even gave the money back to the guy. These are the developers that I truly admire. They focus on player satisfaction more than monetary gain.

The fact that the game can be played without much purchase and the fact that the game is free makes the available purchases in warframe acceptable.

as someone who doesnt give games more money than the title price i hate the battle pass and i miss lootboxes, some games would just give them to you for leveling up but now you have to pay actual money to get anything cool in a game

No one spent $5000 on Overwatch skins in Overwatch 1.. Overwatch 2, maybe but comparing OW1 loot boxes to Fifa Packs is comparing Apples to Oranges.

one small issue, you mentioned warframe here. warframe never had lootboxes. the "microtransaction" they removed wasnt a loot box. there used to be an option to pay platinum (cash currency) to randomize the fur pattern on your space dog. they noticed one guy had done this thousands of times, realized they had accidentally created a slot machine, and immediately fixed the issue.

I don't mind loot boxes as long as they are only cosmetic and are unlocked only through gameplay wether that's buying them with a currency you can only earn through gameplay or just getting them from winning
