Only really affects shit games tho... I zapped through the video. I have to disagree on Overwatch. He probably has similar opinions on CS and Dota. They are a bit dodgy in their attempt to mimic all the little things that make slot machines work psychologically, but it's all purely about cosmetics. As long as it doesn't affect gameplay, I don't care. For the people who are really into skins, they are into skins because of their perceived value. If you took away the gambling aspect these people wouldn't find as much enjoyment int them either. What EA is doing is straight up "well, I won't buy that then" territory.
In other news: Hellblade is fantastic. Drags on a bit occasionally, but the last hour of the game is perfection. Well worth the asking price if you're remotely into that kind of thing - Dark Souls atmosphere with Arkham Knight style combat. One of the most immersive games I've ever played.
Couldn't get into The Sexy Brutale at all for some reason.
Duck game is a fantastic couch game.
