I think loot boxes, in theory, are good for gaming. The vast majority of them don't even approach pay to win. I have no problem with a game selling cosmetic stuff. I don't even really mind games that sell very small Buffs that speed progress, such as 10% additional experience points for 4 hours, or stuff like that. The reality is, these companies exist to make money. Loot boxes are completely voluntary, especially when they're just cosmetics. I'd much rather them make money in that way, rather than Force us to pay $20 more to purchase their game. I can't see why anybody would think differently about this.
Of course, pay to win Loot boxes are a different issue entirely. They are completely unacceptable, in a game that comes with any initial cost. They're fine for free-to-play titles, though I tend not to play that kind of game.
