Not denying them doesn't make it not flimsy

LOL!!! When even an anti-loot boxes source like Gamesindustry.biz willfully pointed out BGC's shady act, you knew this is not going to be good for BGC and some Belgium officials in their political system and the eyes of their countrymen.

The fact that the game industry can even find out "a servant of the BGC leaked the source" and the name of the Belgium companies the BGC and certain government officials exempted with no reason, you know the game industry has done their homework. Uh Oh!!! Who said they were lobbing? Well, certainly they are spending their time to expose the corrupted governments rather.

*Yawn*

Yea sure, w/e, update me when they go to court about it.

LOL!!! They won't go to court because Belgium is done. They haven't said a word since April of last year and they are not making any more noise to the EU since it has adopted the PEGI and ESRB standard and put that Belgium minister on an isolated island.

Belgium is just going to finish up their current batch of a handful game developers and then shut up and leave all the 9000 x 9000 other games with loot boxes running in their country. They can't fight the entire game industry, particularly when there are mounts of evidence and rats against them. The smartest thing they can do is what Netherlands has been doing - totally back off.

And the game industry is fine with it, especially when the biggies like EA and ATVI who hardly care about petty Belgium have moved on to other more profitable countries.

Now that both App store and Google Play require the game devs to disclose the odds for any randomised MTX, the first step to regulating these pesky virtual gambling in these "9000x9000 mobile games" is complete!

Dilbert, turns out you were right all along!! Things do move pretty fast!

LOL x 9000!!! What pretty fast? App Store made that rule almost 1.5 years ago, yes 18 freaking months.... Waa!!! That's "fast" only for Google to do the same right thing 18 freaking months later.

So you think all the over 9000 games that have no problems whatsoever showing their odds on App Stores for 18 months will all of a sudden have a problem showing the same odds on Google? Just a silly joke.

In fact, all along I think it is only fair for all games to reveal the odds of their RNG based features. I always encourage Jagex to reveal their odds too but even without my encouragement, they will have to show the odds in China. It is just a matter of time.
