They still suck, you paid 60 dolars for a game with a free to play system, you want that great skin for your favourite character? SUCKS TO BE YOU, you can spend a month farming and still didnt get it, a skin for a character thats in the game that you paid 60 dolars but cant get. Unlews you whale it up and spend big bucks to raise the probability of getting it.
Its not THAT bad but its still bad. And you give a hand to these publishers and they want your arm, and here we are with endings behind this shit system of loot boxes in 2017, imagine what they will do in 2019 if no one cares.

What alternative do you think would make a better game? Buy a game like Overwatch, have all the skins in it unlocked on day one? take away the cosmetic bonus's which you earn while you play through ranked modes.
If the loot box/leveling system wouldn't be in overwatch they would need to invest a ton more effort into creating some form of other system such as a single player campaign to give people "progression" and yeah... that's not what Overwatch was designed to be, that wasn't what was required to make Overwatch the game of the year last year.
If you think it would be better that you got the skin you wanted on day one then it wouldn't be in any way special or cool to have it, since it would not have been a reward for doing anything.
This isn't a new thing though, if you go back to the Super Nintendo and you want the content from it all open, you need to sit down and play it for hours, it's all available in OW for free, just play the game and get the items. Or just play the game and don't get the items, either way, they're cosmetic items in a FPS title. for all the difference those make.
