Blizzard CEO on loot boxes: 'I don’t think Overwatch belongs in that controversy'

According to the ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board) loot boxes are not gambling—despite the surrounding and ongoing controversy tied to randomised item systems. Speaking to their inclusion in Overwatch, Blizzard co-founder and president Mike Morhaime feels the shooter's interpretation of loot boxes is fair game.

>>Of course it's not! It's all the other publishers that copied their system that are to blame, not them. Right?

Really? Because I complained before it's release. Haha

Although, one thing to keep in mind is that Loot Boxes were around before Overwatch. It just seems Blizzard made it more popular.

Also glad that AMD is partnering up to kick Intel's Decelerator graphics to the curb.

But from the sounds of it... These graphics solutions will use a separate driver fork rather than be included in the main AMD graphics driver package, which is sad to see... And could potentially mean support for it gets dropped/ends up erratic.
