TopicHow are lootboxes any different from those overpriced TCG booster packs of yore?

There's already been posts in this topic explaining how they are different so go read those.
well, let's see. lots of people said they were the same, and one guy said being physical VS being electronic is a difference, which is pretty weak, and then someone else said you can still trade electronic loot in some cases. so, what's the difference?

really, they're the same thing: buying a 'grab bag' of goodies without knowing what's in it, with the possibility of getting something great VS getting nothing interesting so you want to try again.

I'm looking for a really significant difference: something that would make one gambling and the other not gambling.

(not really sold on it either way at the moment, but I do think that if loot boxes are gambling then so are trading card packs, and if trading card packs are not gambling, then neither are loot boxes.)
