There is only one feature I would need to see changed to get me into Counter-Strike again. Remove the loot boxes. At least make the game itself not include a slot-machine. Ideally, do something about the third-party gambling websites.

So, that's not ruling it out, right? (Yes, I am aware that this is essentially asking for the money tap to be turned off)
- capableweb 4y agoAs long as the loot boxes don't impact actual game play, I personally don't mind. I don't care for my weapons to have a certain skin, so loot boxes doesn't impact me at all. Although without them, Valve would probably have to start charging for the game again, and that feels unlikely. Plus they probably earn more money on CS now than they ever did before so yeah, unlikely.
- Hikikomori 4y agoHopefully EU will make them illegal, its basically gambling for kids.
- throwawaymobule 4y agoEven of it does get legislated as a form of gambling, I can see it continuing in CS behind some sort of age gate. I think it's more of a per-country thing. Real gambling is very legal in many EU countries.
- ascar 4y agoI don't really understand what's your problem with that? It has close to zero impact on actual gameplay. Considering it's how this game makes money and it's very effective at that, I highly doubt your wish is becoming a reality. I actually like how you can trade all the skins with other players, so if you don't enjoy gambling but want the skins there is a really convenient option.
- wiseowise 4y agoNot OP, but I’d really like to have “No skins” switch. Having all sorts of rainbow, golden skins ruins immersion for me.
