Topic	EA responds to Regulators Classifying Some Loot Boxes as Gambling
Thompson 05/09/18 3:45:52 AM #22:	Gamers got fed up with games being designed around loot boxes and raised a fuss about it. This attracted the eye of governments, who then saw the loot box system legality questionable, if not outright illegal. Instead of the gaming industry withdrawing the controversial practices, or at least submitting to the law, they double down like mad because they'd rather risk their freedom than lose their gravy train. The gaming industry has only itself to blame for government intervention. --- Sigs are rather pointless, except if it's to showcase animation and images. <cite>Thompson posted [p:901042286] in EA respond...
