    How are their lootboxes a Monopoly? They suck and should be banned in any game/platform because gambling is Bad… But is Fifa or overwatch a Monopoly because they have lootboxes? The silent Support of skin gambling? Didnt they make it harder to trade skins to combat These sites? What could they even rly do to stop the gambling sites? Because as long as you can trade skins the sites will remain.

          I have a near complete control of a market segment.

          I want to monetize that control further.

          I release slot machine mini games into my most popular games.

          I have contributed to the gambling epidemic that plagues modern society.

          I am not a trust worthy entity.

          I am Steam

          Does that make sense?
