Oh no, if people remember that games are supposed to be good, no one will buy our lootbox-infested crap anymore.

Good.

Loot boxes are so 2017. It's all about battle passes, engagement, and player retention now.

You know what creates engagement and retains players?

Making a good game that's actually fun to play instead of focusing on how you're gonna sell me hats and paint jobs and weaponizing FOMO.

But however will the poor shareholders get their value this quarter?

Someone think of the shareholders!

Oh I am thinking of them.. how to murder shareholders in various unique ways... could be neat game idea too!
