This is a no situation for end users.<br><br>On the one hand, government intervention tends to take a sweeping approach to this sort of thing. I’ve seen ideas of this legalisation that affect all mtx, not just lootboxes abdthere are games that use mtx decently (Warframe, Let it Die, Smith, Path of the Exile). It’s used in these games as an alternative model to “pay to play and for future content”, not alongside it. So I’d rather not see such a heavy handed approach taken.<br><br>On the other hand, expecting self-regulation to work is not a wise idea. You will have companies that behave themselves, but then you’ll have the Activisions, EAs and 2Ks who will keep their golden goose alive no matter what. Or look for the replacement with haste, such as the adverts seen in NBA 2019.<br><br>Either way there’s little end users can do, bar just not buy those games and hope theses practices don’t start seeping into every game.
