Interesting how this just happens after Valve wins against the Rothschilds in court, despite the lootboxes being available for the past 10 or so years in Counter Strike and Team Fortress 2.

If this stops loot boxes in general I'm all for it... can we also ban the sale of suprise toys also then because its the same thing as this...

Fuck we can go maximum carnage and stop the sale of card packs like pokemon and mtg and everything else as those are loot crates also
