Mogstation taking another step to the darkside

Rofl, I think that would bother me more then them selling the items Wholesale after a period of time.

Now here is a theory. What if the reason they don't have loot boxes is because they don't have enough items to fill it yet. So, give the game a couple more years, and maybe more funding to the mogstation team and we will get them!

I highly doubt that, people dont like lootboxes to begin with, I think it would effect the game Negatively if they suddenly made Lootboxes and forced you to get items via a roulette, and have to keep paying for said Roulette. They have more then enough items to fill Lootboxes, but its smarter to just sell the items Wholesale. People get what they want, the statistics show what people like...they can make more, and maybe better quality...which would drive up the price.

But hey, give people want they want/Like, and they will pay for it.

It was a joke. But seriously, they do not actually have enough items to fill a lootbox series for maximum profit. They do have enough mounts, but have been selling them directly for years. So. they would have to come up with new and unique mounts with maybe some "carrot on the stick" "bonus" current mounts. They also do not have enough trash to fill the lootboxes to promote continuous buying to get the "desirable" item. You wouldn't want to waste your whole shop on one single lootbox season, they should want to stretch out the desirable items they have throughout the year with bulk trash.

Speaking of ESO, since it is somewhat relevant to this. They actually do season events, and give a handful of things you can earn in game, but have limited themes items on sale for premium currency. With their PvP event earlier this year, they had weekly limited items. As in, it seemed you had one week to buy some items before they rotated to other season themed items the next week. On top of the already limited event duration. Pretty crazy.
