I don’t think anybody other than game publishers actually really likes Loot Boxes and microtransactions, but we as consumers have learned to put up with them, especially when they’re the less egregious sort that only doles out cosmetic fluff. Of course, there is that nice dopamine rush that comes with opening loot boxes, especially when they dish out items you actually want. Of course, while that feels good, it’s not quite the same as liking something; it’s more like an abusive relationship, and one of the reasons that legislators are starting to view loot boxes as being problematic.
