    Well, it would do a lot for the cause if video game studios tried to differentiate their products from online casinos as well.

      If you take real money for RNG payouts, you’re a casino.

      If your payouts aren’t also real money, you’re just a particularly shitty casino.

      I 100% agree. Other countries need to look at loot boxes, gacha systems, randomised loot tables impacted by IRL currencies (including premium currency), etc as gambling and enforce it as such. So many people have lost so much because of the lack of regulation on this.
