And it was plucked from PC mmo's in asia. 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. --- ...
