Official statement from Valve.

We shared with the NYAG that these types of boxes in our games are widely used, not just in video games but in the tangible world as well, where generations have grown up opening baseball card packs and blind boxes and bags, and then trading and selling the items they receive.

You're right! We should stop that too!

Fuck valve for loot boxes but also fuck you twice as much.

Valve is the only market place and game company that isn't as fucking consumers at every step of the way.

They have ONE problem. Instead of ALL the problems like everyone else.

    I have physical copies of games that won't work because of Steam making back alley deals with publishers to push their DRM into securing a monopoly.

    Fuck you for excusing monopolistic shithead behaviour because your favourite billionaire has to buy Aston Martins to race.
