Alright /v/, I did something stupid.
I bought FIFTY (50) loot boxes for Overwatch, bringing the total amount I have spent on the game to 80 dollars, not including tax. But because I know I'm not the only retard on /v/, I decided to make a list of the rarity I received from those 50 boxes so you other retards out there who can judge for yourself before buying.
1 Blue: 23
2 Blue: 11
1 Purple and 1 Blue: 6
1 Purple and 2 Blue: 3
3 Purple: 1
1 Gold: 1
1 Gold 1 Blue: 3
1 Gold 1 Purple: 2
I am currently level 24, so that brings it to 73 crates opened in total. And this matters because once you get to 50 crates total you really start digging into duplicate country. I had quite a few that all four were duplicates or duplicates and a small stash of gold among the common rarities, but you also get around 2000 coins from the duplciates and cash drops.
Obviously you shouldnt expect a 1:1 equivalent since its all luck based, but this is more less what you can expect if you absoulutely MUST have a skin by any means necessary, and if thats the case then just stay away from casinos.
I've bought 5 packs of 50.
The amount of legendarily were; 4, 3, 3, 4, 3
Yeah, i'm a millionaire, fuck off.
I didn't start running into constant duplicates until I'd opened 150 crates
I've opened 200 apart from leveling-rewarded ones and by now I have 2 legendaries for everyone save a few characters

Thanks for this. Did you keep track of the currency too by chance?
>>339032353
Jesus. I'm at a loss for words at how disgusting this is.
>>339031974
>60 bucks for the game
>has an in-game store
>skins
It's like they got jews to do the marketing and chinks for development
>>339032528
by all means keep pretending to be superior to me if it makes you feel better
>>339032379
Sadly no, most of the time it was just from duplicates, but USUALLY the two blue drops had 50 coins. one of the purples was 250 coins and one of the golds was 500 coins. The rest of the golds were skins.
>>339032643
Its 40. 60 is just the origins edition or console version.
>>339032701
Do what makes you happy, Anon.
I got the Blackhardt skin (legendary Reinhardt) from my free box at level 3
>>339031974
>I did something stupid.
>I bought FIFTY (50) loot boxes for Overwatch
Stopped reading there. Congrats you're an idiot and a tool.
I've bought 100 crates and I feel like I'm in almost duplicate country now. Though the first 50 crates gave me enough credits to buy one legendary, and the next 50 gave me enough to buy two.
I'm gonna be real here: where can I sign up to be an advertiser/shill for blizzard? Also, how much money do you make? I'm honestly interested since it sounds easy and fun as fuck.
>>339032701
>all that money on fucking dlc and hats
>compared to the $1,300 spent on actual games
>$10,433.17
>TEN THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE UNITED STATES DOLLARS AND SEVENTEEN CENTS SPENT ON FUCKING HATS AND RNG BOXES
>buying something in the game
Are you retards or something?
Why do you guys spend real money to get skins you will most likely unlock just by playing the game?
I feel bad just for paying the extra 8 bucks for origins.
>>339032701
I know this is bait, but I seriously hope that image isn't real. Some anon's dad is going to be pissed if he sees it.
>>339032976
There are no Overwatch shills on /v/. That is just a common joke and meme.

I don't care how much of daddy's money you get, you're still a colossal retard.
>sample size of 50
>significant enough that OP thinks people can judge the system off of it
OP is a moron.
Have a sample size of maybe 50.000. That starts to begin to scratch the surface of significance.
>>339033009
These faggots are the reason all your games have micro transactions anon.
>>339033121
are you even trying anymore
>>339032701
I really detest vain people. If there is a hell, there's a spot reserved for you.
>>339032250
your grandaddy invent the cheese grater or something?

Hi, my high school statistics teacher.
>actually spending money on fucking skins that have no effect on gameplay
>not just waiting it out by actually playing the game
>having zero control with you money
And that's just for non tradable shit, at least you can do something with cs: go skins
>>339033163
its not meant to be scientific you fuck, its just to give people an idea of what to expect.
>>339032250
my dad*
Why do people keep starting threads with a loot box?
Is this a new meme?
>>339033009
Surely that can't be true???
>>339033295
But that idea is insignificant and not a representation of 'what to expect'.
It's like reading a review where the author says he played 10 minutes of the game.
You can get duplicates? What the fuck. That's retarded, can you even sell them for coins? That's a 100% Jew inexcusable move.
>>339033597
you get coins automatically for duplicates. usually not very much tho
>>339033269
>>339033314
Na, totally self made from a very poor family. Feel free to believe whatever you want, to feel better about your pathetic existence.
I made a videogame that you've most likely played.
>>339033462
it's still better than not having any clue at all of what the rates are like.
>>339033676
hi notch
I honestly do not see the appeal of spending real world cash money to get sprays/skins that you get for free by playing the game.
>>339033676
hi notch, taking a break from trolling twitter?
>>339031974
this was 50 + 21 from levels
>>339033774
I said i was a millionaire, not a billionaire.
>>339033804
That's insanely lucky.

Hi Toby

"Choke on it" guy?

a hentai slideshow isn't a game
>>339033197
Well yes, one of the circles of hell is called "greed" or "gluttony" depending on how you look at it.
>>339033180
no, rich people are a pretty small part of the market. It's the stupid children / teens / 20+ gamers that blow all their money on this shit
>>339033121

underrated posts
>>339032701
>7,207.61 USD spend on micro transactions
this retard spent over 7200 USD for some clothes and hats for his video games characters.
there exists a human on this planet that literally spent over 7200 USD on the video game equivalent of a slot machine. let that sink in and laugh at him with me.
what a pathetic faggot.
>>339035692
At least he didnt spend it on some titstream like kaceytron
>>339035692
>a-are u poor? :)
You know it's coming.
>>339032701
Hey, where can I check how much I've spent in total on Steam? I'm curious how I've done it. I see my purchase history, but it lays out each game individually.
>>339032701
THERE HE IS LADS, MAN THE HARPOONS, THE LEGENDARY 'KEK-WHALE' IS UPON US
I've played for 2 hours and I've gotten 2 legendarys in one pack with a total of about 7 packs.
>>339034640
>stupid children / teens / 20+ gamers
so...literally everyone else?
>>339036284
Don't forget the retarded "gameplay hours/dollar" calculation these people regularly come up with.
>>339032924
yeah the first 50 felt worth it but the second set of 50 wasn't at all. almost every single box had at least one duplicate in it. i even got a fucking duplicate legendary skin. i guess that's the price of my impatience.
>>339032701
This is why we get a retail price AND a cosmetic RNG cash shop on the side.
The whole "vote with your wallet" means shit if there are literally thousands of retards sending this other message loud and clear.
>>339033676
>made a video game
>made a lot of money
>"pathetic existence"
Get out of here jew
>>339037185
the thing about voting with your wallet is that every time you say "no", you save money. just worry about yourself
>>339032701
You've blown what I make in a year on video games
>>339032250
Millionaires are not that insecure, source my uncle.
>>339037362
you make 12k a year? holy shit how are you alive?
>>339033197
You're so vain you probably think this post is about you
>>339037527
There's a lot of people who live on 10-20K a year, anon. It's honestly not that hard.
>>339037527
It all depends where you live and plenty of other factors of course, but I survived on 12-15k a few years back and I believe I could do so again.
It's not a feat really, you only need to cut down on bullshit, spending 7k on gaben hats is definitively out of the question, it should always be if you ask me but to each their own.
>>339037527
I'm a carpenter apprentice, so it's like education that I get paid for but still, I have to do all the dirty shit work and it sucks.
>>339032701
And because of retards like you, we have shit like horse armor DLC in our games :/
Hope you'll get cancer...
>>339032250would you buy overwatch for me? Enjoued the beta but im broke

It's okay anon, just get a job or wait for payday.
