Millennials as well. I get bored with modern games. Grinding all day for a pink weapon skin. Tf, I don't care what color are my skins. Give me a good old challenge

I mean it is a nice extra, if and only if the core gameplay is enjoyable. Porbably most triple AAA titles would be fine with all the secondary stuff, if they whould have just put a little more effort into making a fun game first and foremost and then add the other stuff afterwards.

But of course adding loot boxes to a fun game is a different process than designing a loot box ecosystem and then trying to fit a game into it.
