It shows that - despite you appear to have everything - are a first class idiot.
Lootbox -> gamble -> ban the fuck out of it

No. You deserve worse.
You are the reason such games even exist.
That, on my scale, makes you a scum.

On the other hand, this is a good thing for people who like Apex. If they make money off it, they'll support it and expand it and keep it going for a long time.

But it's easy to fall into that trap once you start. You figure you'll just gamble a little bit... and then you gamble a little more... and before you know it you're so deep in that you refuse to give in. It's diabolical but there you go. I've never done it yet, but I've been close a few times, specifically on SWTOR. I really really wanted a few items but sanity prevailed.
