I think this argument is a stretch for two reasons:
1. Anyone who sells anything has limited runs, sales and so forth. Like that's just commerce; and
2. Loot box games do all the same thing anyway so at least on Fortnite you know the cost of what you want.
This is one of these situations where Fortnite is strictly better than RNG loot boxes. That's not the same as saying they do no wrong. But better? Objectively, yes.
- TazeTSchnitzel 5y ago> Anyone who sells anything has limited runs, sales and so forth. Yes, but Fortnite pushes this to the absolute extreme. It's one thing to visit a store with thousands of products where there's a discount on some of the items and a few limited-time offers. It's a very different thing to visit another store which has thousands of products but only makes eight of them available for sale each day, always as a limited-time offer, with no information about the rest of the catalogue.
