The only reason they’re doing lame shit like that is because of all the cucks joining the (herd) and calling loot crates gambling.

Very much this. To all the idiots claiming that any elements of randomness equates to gambling, here you go. Great company you find yourself in.

InB4 they try to ban games like Diablo for having tiered loot as “instilling pro-gambling ideologies into children” (not to mention “enforcing the patriarchal heterodox that some loot is inherently better than others”). They’ll demand we switch to “Loot Type A” and “Loot type B”

And a buncha chumps will be like “well, they got a point!”

Randomness, also called variance, is the key to replayability.

So naturally "some" people absolutely hate it. Inability to adapt is a sign of low intelligence.

Or autism. There's a reason why only autists find speedrunning (i.e. playing the same game over and over and over again just to shave a few nanoseconds) fun.

Variance as applied to people is also the key to why most of their half-baked ideologies don't work, they hate it for ruining their layabout utopia too.

It's this fucking mentality. When you beg the government to ban porn/goonery and "gambling" because it's "bad for society" you get dumb shit like this.

calling loot crates gambling.

Loot crates inside of a GAME... https://www.etymonline.com/word/gamble

Conspiracy side-note: Gabe is short for Gabriel from Hebrew Gabhri el (man of god)...and not just a man of any God but NEW-ELL (new god).
