Re: Video Game Cases to Disclose Paid Random Loot Boxes

Hard to believe the ESA is owned by the big software companies and the ESRB is an off shoot of the ESA. Right?
These guys are trying to cover the fact that "loot boxes" are included in some of their biggest products and they DON'T want to walk that back.

I agree with Nightcrawler71 when he/she says it does not go far enough.
Example: the FIFA series is marked "E" for everyone and yet it is more of a casino than EA will admit. A casino that is available to a 9 year old that has their parents credit card number. Same is true for Battlefield, Madden, NBA2K, etc.

Just say, "Includes loot boxes" and tell it like it is.
The ESRB is not going to fully communicate what is going on as long as it's master is holding the reigns.

Time split between Elder Scrolls Online and MLB the Show 19.
Yep, love me some MLB but I just don't see enough reason to buy this year's version over the last.
ESO is still my favorite game of the last year.
I've met so many great folks online while playing it.
Stay safe everyone....
