Should Loot Boxes Be Timed?

Both Shadow of War and Forza Motorsport 7 are games that abandoned loot boxes as the titles aged. Is this a good way for companies to earn good will and get eyes back on older games?

Goodwill? LOL

They only did it because they got as much as they could get and were planning to move on...removing them regardless of game or company is not doing it for goodwill or the goodness of their hearts

Direwolf4842865d ago

Forza Motorsport 7 didn't have paid lootcrates though, so that makes no sense.

SegaGamer2864d ago

Paying real money for loot boxes should just die already. I don't mind them existing, but they should only be paid for with in game money. Some people will say "You can still do that" which is true, but devs make it a massive grind fest just to tempt people into buying them when they give us both options.

timotim2863d ago

Yeah FM7 however, never gave gamers the option to buy them using real world money...only in-game currency. They are most likely removing them to give them gamer the option to only purchase (with in game money) what they want directly. In that case its no harm no foul. Games like GTS are just straight up putting MTs in their game as an option with the cars...FM7 never has...

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit38d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing38d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9238d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
