Valve are being taken to court again over their billion dollar lootbox business, which allegedly "use the same psychological techniques as casino games".
Yeah those won’t be affected by this in the slightest, the lawsuit here is reliant upon these lootbox items having real money value from people trading skins and hats for Valve’s games. Gacha games are irrelevant here.

Ubisoft is doing it too, Ghost Recon Wildlands still offers them.
