Apart of which was the success of shivering isles. It took quite some time until cosmetic DLC came back. Also sure is strange how you ignored the other90% of the post because you can't admit you're talking out of your ass. Can't explain what "big" means that doesn't contradict everything else you've said. Can't support how overwatch was the game that sparked it into all these other franchises and genres...that already had them. And can't explain how within a few months of OW we have BFII putting a hard brake on the practice. Except of course for beloved Valve who continues to sell community mods in a loot box because they are the greediest developers outside of mobile. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure that you have done anything at all.

SevenTenths 07/10/20 1:59:17 PM #56:	yup that's how the word few works. But hey look that's 6 times now you can't answer a direct question. Still waiting on you to define "big" in a way that doesn't contradict yourself. still waiting on an explanation of how overwatch brought it to all these games and genres that already had them 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. Also only between this time it got big enough for legislation to rapidly react to the problem of lootboxes. I mean, we're what 5 months into a quarantine with unemployment benefits about to cut off and politicans can't act on that. But lootboxes. Bam, they were on that shit in MONTHS after overwatch took it from ??? to "big". you can support what you say right? or do you just want to keep avoiding backing up what you say because it hurts you feelings to admit that Valve is the greediest developer outside of mobile. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure that you have done anything at all.

Or are you catching up with the flaw of your premise yet that it couldn't have gotten "big" with overwatch if it crashed with BFII. It was big before OW, OW was just riding the wave that valve started. and 0/10 and skipping 2/3 of the post again because you know you can't back up anything you say. All because you can't admit valve is the greediest developer outside of mobile. </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

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

I used your same games for a specific reason. Figure out why. AsucaHayashi posted... because good business can easily turn into bad business. so again. In your world lootboxes didn't become "big" until 2016, were phased out in 2017. Explain how overwatch made them "big" and then faster than EA can churn out a sequel they were deemed "bad business". The 6 years between TF2 and OW, where lootboxes got added to everything, including e-gads, overwatch blizzard TF2 copy is "very small" but the so many games you can't even list one is "tons" now? And activision adding lootboxes before overwatch doesn't count because "leading" means "following" in your bizzaro world. Microsoft added lootboxes to gears and forza because of Overwatch, not because shadows of mordor already broke down the door of single player lootboxes? and now we're at 0/11 of you being unable to support anything you've claimed because it caused you great turmoil to admit that valve is the greediest developer outside of mobile. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure that you have done anything at all.
