If this stops loot boxes in general I’m all for it… can we also ban the sale of suprise toys also then because its the same thing as this…
Fuck we can go maximum carnage and stop the sale of card packs like pokemon and mtg and everything else as those are loot crates also
This wouldn’t “stop loot boxes” though. They aren’t bringing in EA, Activision, Epic, or any other big company pushing loot boxes.
It feels like they are trying to specifically target Valve until they go public and get controlled by the same BS financiers that run the rest of “the market”.
My tinfoil hat is getting a lot of use lately. :(
Yeah it’s bullshit, you can’t say some of the least toxic and manipulative loot boxes are the problem… I understand valve is one step on the edge of evil but for the most part they have used that power to help control the gaming industries greed…
If this goes through I can see them banning any games with loot boxes from steam or some petty shit like that which im all for…
Let people buy the things they want…
Loot boxes allowed valve games to be free to play for most people. I’m fine with sacrificing the people who aren’t smart enough not to gamble so that the rest of us can play for free, they weren’t going to make it anyways.
So children
You are fine with sacrificing children
Yes I am specifically fine with sacrificing children… the younger the better.
