  • Njemačka želi zabraniti igre s loot boxovima mlađima od 18, između ostalih i FIFA-u. Zakon stiže jako brzo

UPDATE: The Bundestag has amended its announcement about the passing of reform of the Youth Protection Act to remove mention of loot boxes.

It appears the Bundestag made a mistake with its own announcement of the legal reform. The announcement, which can be viewed on the Bundestag's website, no longer includes the line: "It is also planned to deactivate cost traps such as 'loot boxes' by default."

The amendment does stipulate that age ratings will be expanded to include descriptors for various problematic mechanics, including "cost traps". The idea here is to indicate risk if it was not taken into account in the age classification.

However, there is currently no indication that video games with loot boxes will be rated 18+.

The headline of this article has been changed to reflect the change in the Bundestag's announcement.

Nije to baš bezveze kaj se zakon takav donosi ali maloljetnici će naći načina kako to zaobići.

Onda će morat zabraniti i Pokemon karte, Panini karte i sve ostale paketiće gdje se "nešto" nalazi unutra 🤷‍♂️ Tehnički, sve to je neka vrsta loot boxa.
Životinjsko carstvo također. To je isto kocka, za one koji žele puniti album.

Trading cards su collectables koji imaju pravi resale value.
I još k tome su fizički objekt, što je manje važno, ali predpostavljam da je važnije tim starudijama od političara.

Uz resale value, bitno je isto kaj tamo potencijalna vrijednost neke karte nije direktno povezana sa njenom efektivnošću u igri.
