    I was going to say… I literally had zero clue what the hell they were talking about. So Valve implemented a crappy moneymaking mechanism in one of their various games that can actually be used to leveraged to purchase games on Steam…

    I may start playing Counter Strike again just to sell loot boxes to other people and make my games cheaper.
