I wish Overwatch had flopped sales-wise

ME3 was single player. Not sure why anybody would have bothered with its multiplayer mode. Hiding lootboxes in a dark and hidden corner of the game (ME3's Multiplayer), is not the same thing as making them front and center in your game for everybody to see. 

Stop trying to make exceptions or claim things don't count. The OP's claim that Overwatch was the first successful game with loot boxes was categorically false, as was his claim that EA never put loot boxes into any non-sports or mobile games until after Overwatch.

People making false claims without doing any research is a bad thing, don't defend it.

Yeah OP had his facts wrong, but he still has a point. Overwatch wasn't the first game to have lootboxes, or the fist successful online-only game. But it still had a huge impact on the industry, due to a combination of timing, quality, and marketing.
