I always forget about loot boxes tbh, because I don’t use them. But you’re totally right.

Yeah me too since I don’t really play multiplayer games developed by valve anymore.

I will say though, to me it is a lot more than just loot boxes. These “in game” items have real world value which add to the risk reward factor that made them so addictive to me growing up

Valve hasn’t really done much to stop this issue
