Comment on Austrian Supreme Court rules that FIFA loot boxes are not gambling
BreakerSwitch@lemmy.world 1 day agoHaven’t read the article, but the argument made in the past for these things has been “The prizes have no value and there is no way to ‘cash out’ therefore it’s not gambling.”

The argument they gave, cited in the article, is that there’s a skill component to them. By which I’m guessing they mean playing Ultimate Team with the contents of the loot boxes, but it doesn’t get specific. And I still don’t think that would add a skill component to the loot boxes themselves.

I’m 100% with you that’s clearly, demonstrably bullshit
