Whatever you think I'm talking about is not the same thing as what I'm actually talking about.

The game industry shenanigans are definitely reaching a crescendo right now. 2017 has been the year of the loot box. Even this years Need For Speed has them. I can't remember playing a game in the 90's, 00's, nor early 10's with lootboxes in them. Nor microtransactions. So I definitely don't understand what your "since the 80's" quote alludes to.

Here, have a playlist to get you up to speed. Pick and choose whichever vids you want to see. Or don't. Ignorance is bliss after all.

If you want to go the monkey see-no-evil etc route on this, then that's on you
