Why tf fortnite keeps getting called “lootbox nightmare” around here despite

1. There never were lootboxes in br
2. Lootboxes being gone for like 6 years already
3. Already slapped for using lootboxes when they were active

The money that funds these exclusivity deals, and your free games, are being funded majorly by selling gambling lootboxes to kids.

How the hell they would make so much money from gambling while not offering it in any first party games? Or the 12% from gacha like games is enough to fuel the entire game shop nowadays?

CS was paid, Dota and Fortnite had “early access” packs before being released. Yeah fortnite is the odd one out here with keeping early access stuff to seperate gamemode and still costing money, but was originally planned to transition to f2p.

3/5 games from that list also launched as paid games, but gained majority of its players after becoming f2p. Yeah people love free stuff ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

I used this third party website tho. As it displays player count graphs and other things for each “”“experience”“”.

It’s still top 20 by player count, despite being the only paid game mode and getting like 2 updates a year with some QOL and bugs every update

Just one more update bro
