    Exactly. The main problems are two-fold:

    • chance-based item acquisition - if I can buy the thing I want, that’s fine, but if it’s all chance based, it promotes gambling
    • market to resell items - now there’s a cash incentive to gamble

    I don’t have a problem with paid cosmetics, I have a problem with promoting gambling.

    That said, I think Valve has done more good than bad, so I like them. I don’t like everything they do though.
