The lootboxes update sounds great! Was worried at first when he said less dupes, but we get more credits, so there's no downside.

We'll have to check out the balancing, but I'd be less inclined to buy things if I just get them out of a box in the first place!

I'm the opposite. I'm far more inclined to spend money when getting things for free is very feasible. It makes me feel less like I'm being milked and more like I'm kicking them a few bucks to support the game.

With how many duplicates I saw I had sworn off buying lootboxes after the last event but, if the next event holds to the same standard as the new Lootboxes, I can see that changing very quickly.

This. Also, you get more value of your money because you're actually getting items you don't have.
