The Future of Microtransactions / Lootboxes

[Køtt]

make a lootbox that either upgrades your game or downgrades your game

think of all the solid gold humvees you could buy if you introduced lootboxes into blockland on its Steam launch

think of how the money could instead be used to turn his house into solid gold

oh gawd. tf2 keys!!!!


This idea might work if blockland had some sort of "collectable" worth trading in-game
that could actually be used for something unique (maybe spend BL "gold" to revive an old topic, or even be able to "delete" an old drama, idk) I suppose the hats thing might be the most sensible

the aesthetic

[otto-san]

the post button is now a loot box. Legendary roll makes your post glow and captions your name with "The Biggest Bastard", if you're lucky you also have a chance at an autoban

What do you guys think will make more money? Getting $20 $10 from the mentally ill every time they buy a new key after they're banned, or going the free-to-play model and banking of off excited children wasting their parents money?

make blockland free to play but put add-ons in lootboxes so for every 100k bricks you plant you get a box and that box will be the box you finally get tier+tactical instead of the original duplicator, or you could just buy lootboxes and keep adding to your duplicator collection

duplicating the duplicator

[Daswiruch]

honestly im a loving handicap and i love loot boxes
i'm a super loving materialist and i love collecting as much stuff as humanly possible
i've spent about $20 on csgo cases, a lot on tf2 keys, and i plan on spending more in the future when i get a better computer because i love cs skins
i am the whale

I refuse to believe that anyone who falls for lootboxes or microtransactions are sentient. They are all subhuman and deserve to have their money stolen.

Ill gladly take meme boxes over paying $120 for a AAA game. Video games are worth more than $60 with production costs in mind. They have to make money somehow.
