How are sports video game ‘ultimate team’ card packs not as hot of an issue as loot boxes?
In: Culture
I think it’s because that whole mode is like a fantasy football type deal. So instead of forcing you to budget and draft and all that shit, you just get “trading cards” essentially.
Where as the loot boxes most people hate (myself included) are for things like cosmetic outfits. Or in some cases (EA Battlefront 2) progression in the game was locked behind loot boxes.
Plus in most “Ultimate team” modes, they have a set “2 ultra rare, one uncommon, 4 random” type gimmick. Where as most loot boxes are just random stuff, usually garbage you didn’t want.
Or I’m entirely wrong and have no idea what I’m taking about, both are possible 😂
