[3259.70 --> 3260.64] They make headphones good.
[3262.10 --> 3262.50] Yeah.
[3263.18 --> 3267.42] I don't know anything about this at all, but it seems cool.
[3267.86 --> 3272.52] Europe and Washington State bands together to tackle the loot box problem.
[3272.52 --> 3274.46] And it's a long topic.
[3275.10 --> 3277.20] It's cool, though, because it just puts more pressure.
[3277.60 --> 3278.34] Hopefully...
[3278.34 --> 3278.66] Absolutely.
[3278.72 --> 3281.60] There'll be no more loot boxes at all, but that's dumb.
[3282.40 --> 3282.48] That'd be great.
[3282.48 --> 3284.44] They'll make it freemium somehow.
[3284.68 --> 3285.34] They'll find a way.
[3286.42 --> 3287.64] Money will find a way.
[3288.22 --> 3289.06] I hate loot boxes.
[3289.78 --> 3290.62] See you at my birthday.
[3290.86 --> 3291.34] My...
[3291.34 --> 3292.82] I'm out of here.
[3292.82 --> 3299.02] Honestly, one of my biggest problems with loot boxes is, I think, something that isn't
[3299.02 --> 3300.50] being fought for very much.
[3301.04 --> 3302.98] I hate that cosmetic items are in it.
[3303.44 --> 3304.86] And a lot of people say that it's fine.
[3305.08 --> 3309.18] But there's a lot of paid games that have cosmetic items in loot boxes.
[3309.42 --> 3311.18] And I think that is horrendous.
[3311.18 --> 3314.60] The old League of Legends model, especially then, it wasn't even a loot box.
[3315.36 --> 3316.44] You just buy it.
[3316.66 --> 3318.18] You buy the one you want, which is...
[3318.86 --> 3320.06] Why is that so hard?
[3320.52 --> 3321.72] You just get the thing you want.
[3321.72 --> 3325.72] But with loot boxes, putting cosmetic items in it, it removes...
[3326.48 --> 3329.70] In my opinion, it removes features from the game.
[3329.90 --> 3332.46] And I think that's something that people aren't really paying attention to.
[3332.54 --> 3333.54] Like, if you look at Destiny.
[3334.58 --> 3336.68] Destiny, when it first came out, I've heard the new expansion is good.
[3336.76 --> 3336.94] Whatever.
[3337.10 --> 3337.46] I don't care.
[3337.50 --> 3338.16] I'm done with that game.
[3338.36 --> 3343.16] But when Destiny first came out, there was all this stuff to do, but it was extremely
[3343.16 --> 3343.94] not rewarding.
[3344.38 --> 3346.80] And you would hit a cap really, really quickly.
[3347.02 --> 3351.42] And then the main things left to do in the game, in a lot of games, once you hit the end,
[3351.42 --> 3353.86] is to make your character look really cool.
[3354.36 --> 3356.50] And there was a lot of ways to pay for that.
[3357.02 --> 3363.06] But there's so many systems in the game where it would have been really easy and absolutely
[3363.06 --> 3367.80] would have happened, like, 10 years ago, if there was no loot boxes.
[3368.18 --> 3371.90] They would have had, maybe not all the cosmetic items, but a lot of the cosmetic items that
[3371.90 --> 3376.02] were there would be unlockable through doing something in the game.
[3376.02 --> 3378.94] And you paid full price for this game.
[3379.08 --> 3382.70] So having, like, additional challenges, like, oh, beating the raid in under a certain amount
[3382.70 --> 3386.84] of time, or beating the raid with no deaths, or doing whatever else.
[3386.84 --> 3387.22] It's not new content.
[3387.36 --> 3388.46] The raid was already there.
[3388.52 --> 3388.66] Yeah.
[3388.74 --> 3390.52] It's just new incentive to play it a different way.
[3390.78 --> 3391.00] Yeah.
[3391.06 --> 3392.62] And that's huge for me, personally.
[3392.62 --> 3394.58] I love weird challenge modes.
[3394.58 --> 3398.82] I'll often, like, play a game on a not very high difficulty, but then make it so that,
[3398.90 --> 3401.18] like, oh, I'm playing a shooter game, but I'm...
[3401.18 --> 3401.68] You nerf yourself.
[3401.84 --> 3403.30] I don't allow myself to use guns.
[3403.46 --> 3403.54] Yeah.
[3403.54 --> 3406.96] I have to use, like, just a knife.
[3407.08 --> 3407.30] Yeah.
[3407.32 --> 3409.60] I did that in Splinter Cell in the third one, Chaos Theory.
[3409.72 --> 3409.86] Yeah.
[3409.86 --> 3412.82] I was only allowed to stun the lights out, like EMP them.
[3413.16 --> 3413.94] No bullets at all.
[3414.14 --> 3417.44] I missed out on all the shotguns and snipers and all the cool things in that game.
[3417.58 --> 3417.82] Yeah.
[3418.44 --> 3420.32] But it makes it really a cool experience.
[3420.32 --> 3425.70] And that's something you can do, and the game can also incentivize those types of situations,
[3426.28 --> 3427.22] and they often...
[3427.22 --> 3431.02] Games often do with cosmetic items or unlocks of some sort.
[3431.30 --> 3438.24] Like, if you remember Smash back in the day, to unlock all the characters, you had to do
[3438.24 --> 3438.66] some stuff.
[3438.68 --> 3439.36] What did you have to do?
[3439.48 --> 3441.22] I don't even remember, but you had to do some stuff.
[3441.60 --> 3443.78] I feel like it required an all-nighter.
[3444.26 --> 3447.98] It's like you had to do something with every character, some crazy thing like that.
[3447.98 --> 3449.44] Like, it was kind of not...
[3449.44 --> 3452.90] A lot of games used to have those types of systems, and those were really fun.
[3453.26 --> 3455.16] And now most of those things...
[3455.16 --> 3457.22] I'm not saying the new Smash doesn't have this one.
[3457.24 --> 3459.22] I don't even know if the last Smash had that type of a system.
[3459.56 --> 3460.94] I'm not trying to throw Smash under the bus.
[3461.00 --> 3464.24] I just remember that was a very legendary one, being able to unlock the characters,
[3464.36 --> 3465.40] fairly core to the game.
[3466.34 --> 3471.18] A lot of games used to have systems where if you did something at an advanced level or
[3471.18 --> 3473.74] in a specific way, you would unlock something.
[3473.74 --> 3477.82] And most of those systems have been removed in order to make it so you pay for those things.
[3477.98 --> 3478.56] Yeah, that's weak.
[3478.78 --> 3479.32] That is...
[3479.32 --> 3480.58] I hate that so much.
[3480.62 --> 3481.40] We need a new council.
[3481.80 --> 3482.38] A new council.
[3482.70 --> 3482.94] Yeah.
[3483.48 --> 3483.72] Yeah.
[3484.02 --> 3485.02] Hey, are there any more Super Chats?
[3486.32 --> 3487.58] I don't know how to check.
[3488.54 --> 3489.64] Like, 100%.
