And in those boxes I sometimes see < 1% chances on the main item to drop and close to 50% for useless junk…
All games have their methods to leach cash out of players, but some methods are just despicable. Galaxy of FIre: Alliances was a positive exception. Buy a point doubler for $1.99 that’s permanent… Those amounts are within the expendable income part for almost all players. (not > 100 for 1 item or thousand for gambling)
Take Two bought Zynga and managed to add a battle pass to CSR Racing 2 which you can’t ignore as well… Every week ‘here are the new tasks’, every level ‘here is your reward’ and no way to keep on gaming and check it out later, you have to go to the pass… (which takes a minute)
I thought those lootboxes were the cancer of the gaming industry, but this is worse. I’m glad that some are killing the pass system off again.
