A new law in Belgium just got out : it's forbidden to buy anything on video games that involves randomness, like loot boxes in Overwatch, or crates in CS:GO. They invite other countries to do the same. Do you think this a good change?

Personally, I don't like this. It's not like you're forced to gamble or buy the microtransactions. You should have the option to if you want.
But no one cares what I think so it doesn't matter really.
It's just that some companies (wink-wink) turn lootboxes into real-life gambling.B1rd wrote:
Of course it's stupid. It's an example of a nanny state interfering in people's lives in ways it's not wanted. Also, it's trying to make out as if buying lootboxes is similar to gambling in a casino or something.
How do they turn it into "real-life gambling"?KatouMegumi wrote:
