This wouldn't "stop loot boxes" though. They aren't bringing in EA, Activision, Epic, or any other big company pushing loot boxes.
It feels like they are trying to specifically target Valve until they go public and get controlled by the same BS financiers that run the rest of "the market".
My tinfoil hat is getting a lot of use lately. :(
Yeah it's bullshit, you can't say some of the least toxic and manipulative loot boxes are the problem... I understand valve is one step on the edge of evil but for the most part they have used that power to help control the gaming industries greed...
If this goes through I can see them banning any games with loot boxes from steam or some petty shit like that which im all for...
Let people buy the things they want...
