ea has kept lootboxes out of their games beyond fifa and madden since. Ubisoft pulled them from their games. Microsoft pulled them from forza and gears.

so your small cherrypicked list is apparently proof that there were more games with lootboxes before OW than after... including ones that were literally made after OW.

lol

what 2/3 of my examples that followed OW dropped them?

apparently we're now in the part of your brain where you confuse your own examples as ones that were provided by me... wow.

why would you get out after it gets big and is pumping out the most money in this fantasy land of yours?

Your point is lootboxes were "small" then now "tons" despite 2/3 of your examples that "followed" overwatch having dropped them by now.

what 2/3 of my examples that followed OW dropped them? did we jump back into your little narrative world again where you see words that weren't actually written by me?

SevenTenths posted...
so now a few games is tons? but you just said all the games before overwatch with lootboxes is "small" but now it's "tons"?

yes, after something becomes big and a few games choose to drop out of the race, there's still a large amount of games left that can be considered tons.

you mean long after loot boxes became big? true.

in fact, they even agreed to share loot box odds:

and that's still nothing on how they went from "big" to phased out in about a year.

phased out from what? one single game from one single game company in 2017? oh shucks, you sure got me with that pristine example.

SevenTenths posted...
you're stance literally requires on you saying lootbox legislation is more important than covid to get the legislation done faster then we can figure out what to due with 11% unemployment.

so any political topic that were resolved faster than covid-19 legislation at a time when the world wasn't in lockdown is now considered more important than covid-19?

still waiting on an explanation of how you come from "big" in may 2016 (apparently it was an instant success and immediately adopted by everyone, damn publishers have some quick turn around time!) to being abandoned, patched out, and phased out of future game plans by november 2017.

already provided a list that supports the claim where it's adopted by several big name companies, games and franchises. you blatantly ignoring it isn't my problem.
also, your "abandonment" plans still refers to one single game by one single company in possession of the most downvoted reddit comment.

horse armor wasn't popular or accepted. that's the point of the topic.

but it was a huge deal and it was adopted by the entire industry.

i think i understand where the wheel completely broke down for you.

apparently you think "big" means popular, accepted, normalized... i guess just from reading the topic title alone you'd claim that horse armor was incredibly popular and both accepted and normalized just from the wording "huge deal".

TF2 adds lootboxes which are then picked up by EA to put in fifa.

it literally was pc and valve and tf2 that normalized loot boxes. They did it before EA added them to fifa. And it was plucked from PC mmo's in asia.

Sorry, this one is all pc mustard race who told EA, yup, gamers will make this profitable, add it in boys.

lol

With the financial success of Overwatch and its loot-box systems, several games in 2016 and 2017 included the mechanic as part of its meta-game,[27] including Call of Duty, Halo 5: Guardians, Battlefield, League of Legends,[28]Paragon, Gears of War 4, and FIFA 17. By late 2017, a large number of core AAA games from key franchises released near this time, including Middle-earth: Shadow of War, Forza Motorsport 7 and NBA 2K18, with varying mechanics in their loot-box systems, led to critical review of the practice starting in October 2017.[29][30][31] In particular, the highly-visible Star Wars Battlefront II, released amid criticism of its loot-box systems in November 2017, led to renewed discussions at various government levels related to the legality of these systems.[32][33] The review aggregator OpenCritic announced plans to include a "business model intrusiveness" for games that provide a metric on how much a game's loot and DLC system can impact the game.[34] The reaction to loot boxes in the last half of 2017 was considered one of the major trends in the video game industry in 2017

keep thinking it was a "normalized thing" before OW tho. i'm sure governments were all over it when TF2 and asian mmos had lootboxes in them.

general microtransactions/nickel and diming DLC didn't become big before horse armor even if it existed before.

and lootboxes(which is just another offspring of mtx) didn't become big until blizzard hit it off with OW hence the no excuses part since blizzard is a PC company or at least that's my interpretation of it.
