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.

One system better is getting points and spend points on what YOU WANT,not some bullshit system that is random. I dont understand people defending loot boxes to be honest, is a system only good for publishers, a system designed to milk money out of players.

You can do that in Overwatch, alongside items from boxes every item (except for player icons) are available to purchase for between 25-3000 gold, getting a Legendary gold drop gives 500g (1 in 13 boxes have a legendary item) so there is luck to getting what you want... or if you don't get it you can buy the items you want specifically.

I don't understand people attacking a system they don't know.
