Good that EA knows Wriath, Pathfinder, Mirage, Lifeline, Gilbratar and Caustic are just common names, not somebody famous like a "Cristiano Ronaldo".

Too bad, some lowest common denominators can't even pick a bone out of EA's loot box advertisementn now. :D

BTW, Princess Alice is also a very common name, and fictional too. Who can whine about TH? Uh oh! Not even a few from the lowest common denominators of the world. :D

If only they though of that for Overwatch and named their characters things like Tracer, Winston or Bastion. Maybe then they would be able to ban their loot boxes since they won't be connected to famous people.

That'd help their case tremendously.
It didn't.

Overwatch was in a different "violation" than FIFA. Although there wasn't a Cristiano Ronaldo to advertise their shiny Golden lootboxes, Overwatch put a distinctive dramatic visual animation and audio effect on their lootboxes. They shoot the loot box high up the sky and then drop to the ground in a flashy way and some lowest common denominator "government" think it is deceiving the consumers to thinks it is all special prizes they have won.

Now you look at Alice and her TH boxes... Princess Alice just claps her hand the natural way when you open your TH chest. She doesn't even jump up and down in joy with your prizes regardless they are a few logs or 200 mil gp. There is no over-dramatization or deceiving e-commerce practice there. :D

Oh! Apex also does nothing special to the visual and audio effects on ther loot boxes. They can also shrug at the lowest common denominator governments too. :D

There are confetti and fireworks whenever you open a chest as well. Don't try to downplay it.

Pretty much this and not to mention the "explosion" only gets bigger the rarer the prize. Just like how most other lootboxes make a show of it if you win something "big".

When I get a clue scroll thieving or a bird nest woodcutting, I get a sound effect. When I level up, I get an "explosion" effect. None of these NORMAL effects mean anything "rare" at all.

Don't tell me it is rare to level up, or you should pray the lord for getting a bird nest. :D :D :D :D :D :D

I'm not talking any old explosion to mark an achievement in game. Stop trying change the subject seeing as you kick and scream every time things don't go your way when things don't go your way and you yell "off topic!".

Any here's proof of what I mentioned.

Take note of how the chest bursts when it's just you average white or yellow prize then skip to 2:17 in the video and you'll notice a pretty big difference to how they open. Proof that they have a similar "dramatic visual and audio" when you open your th chests just like in Overwatch.

Showing different quality of audio/visual effects on different quality of items means Jagex is not deceiving the players. If they show the same effect on white and purple items dramatically then it may be a problem.

Didn't I tell you already we get different audio effect when we can a bird nest and a clue scroll drop? The different sounds are appropriately for different quality of loots.
