I was speaking to friends about how well GW2 has handled their payment model a few days ago and then they linked me this. At the time I was persuading them to buy PoF as HoT hadn't gone down well. Now I am pretty ashamed I promoted the game. I have very strong feelings towards the lootbox proliferation and this pseudo gambling which I feel shouldn't be delivered to anyone under the age to gamble or to vulnerable adults. Its a terrible exploitative practice and I felt GW2 was above this. With this news I've told my buddies to keep away. This was also the game my family were playing (including my little girl who desperately wanted me to buy her PoF for a bunny) I'm pretty disgusted with this and we won't be playing or paying anymore. I know this sounds like a tantrum post but I have no interest in the mount skins at all but I find this exploitative gambling practices so abhorrent I cannot support the game anymore. Honestly, I can't wait for the day the UK accepts the practice as gambling and mature rates these games.
