Thought this was about lootboxes and how Nintendo,Sony, and Microsoft are requiring devs to disclose the odds before they can release their games on their systems.

My wife got me a 6 month subscription to Lootcrate for my birthday a couple years ago. I think there were two or three things over the 6 months that were actually cool and not just useless clutter.

Good. The loot crate companies were a pretty terrible idea. A YouTuber I subscribe to did about three of these companies. I always said he must have some massive yard sales.

They had a pretty great business model until people caught on. Package up a dollar's worth of useless shit nobody in their right mind would pay money for and sell it as a "surprise." Brilliant.

I subscribed for a couple years. Got some decent t-shirts and various other swag out of it, but the only things I really got excited for were the Mass Effect: Andromeda box (which had stuff like glass decanters, Blasto! cereal bowls, and a sweet hoodie), and a Jessica Jones figure. Before I went to HeroesCon in June, I dug all the boxes out of my closet and set everything I wanted aside, then gave away like 90% of what was left to random people there.

I thought it was cool at first, but after awhile they were mostly just sending out their own branded items which IMO misses the point

If youtube ever starts enforcing that part of the TOS, about half the "content creators" would be purged overnight.

Yeah, I remember those last 1up Crates started coming out and you could actually hear the depression in some of these YouTubers voices who had to review this junk.

Still, it was a good little system for awhile. YouTubers got free shit to review for an easy to make, high view video.

"Wow, look at this pin!"
"Some cool stickers."
"Whoa... a $5 off coupon. I'll use this later!"

Hilarious.

While I never got this.. I am sad to see people lose jobs and sad to see it go, the time frame where youtubers were pushing that crap was better time for me and I miss it.

I like how they kept sending idubbz boxes even though they knew he would just **** on them

Crappy products? Not caring about their brand? Free promotion? I think yes
