I dunno man, when good game journalists look into the matter, they seem to come to the same conclusions that I do, the difference is, I didn't need to talk to Valve's employees to figure it out why Valve doesn't do anything about the issue, because it should be pretty obvious if you follow things to their logical conclusion. The more gambling sites there are, and the bigger they are, the more Valve profits from skins.

Worth a watch.
Funny thing is I have them all on ignore list but during the sales they showed up, I guess marketing is more important than a custom filter list
Sadly, you are correct. There is not much consistency between what gamers say and what gamers do. Reminds me of how EA said in a recent quarterly financial report that nearly 80% of their revenue was from microtransactions. Way too high.
As for me, most of my games are the traditional buy to play model. Yes I play a small handful of F2P games like Path of Exile and Dungeons and Dragons Online, but I play these games because I like the setting and gameplay, not because of their F2P systems. If Path of Exile was buy to play I would play it the same as I do now.
Path of Exile’s micro transactions are good because they are mainly cosmetic. You don’t need to buy them to make your character stronger. I love that game.
I feel the same way. Loot boxes are annoying because you never have control over the items you gain. For example you end up getting six copies of the Purple Dragon Helmet but never get the Purple Dragon Boots. So your character has mismatching equipment sets
I guess since you couldn't refute anything in the video, you just decided to dismiss it.
Either way, you should not need that video to be able to understand that it's Steam's API that enables these gambling websites, denying this is basically denying observable reality and there's no constructive debate that can be had that way. After all, if we are going deny the facts, what debate is there to be had?
I always considered it to be a fun game. Not one I would play 24/7, yes the grind is real but I mean... its a free game. What the bloody hell do you expect? Not everything can be Path of Exile and be successful. Ban for no reason? Citation needed. And bugs well... yknow... its not like we didnt have that COUGH COUGH problem in actual paid game right?
Let me guess, they are "sjws" and that got you mad?
Yes unsurprisingly games that require constant high player populations of users in order to sustain themselves have OH MY GOD high player populations. As opposed to, well I dunno, single player games that do not have giant sustained tails because you know EVERYONE DOESNT NEED TO PLAY THEM ALL THE TIME
Wow what an incredible insight. Who would have thought that games that require large player counts to be sustainable, would have, *checks notes* high sustained player counts
And that popular single player games like Skyrim, Witcher, CP2077, Elden Ring, games that do not require massively sustained player counts, don't have high sustained player counts?
The only thing your 'hot take' tells anyone is that you're basically not actually very smart
It's sweet how people assume things. No I don't think of those as 'good game journalists' either. Just something a little bit above the 'I has a youtube channel' bunch. Loads of overlap amongst those anyway.
Are you aware gambling sites still work without the API, right?
By extension of your reasoning, the very existance of Steam 'enables' gamling sites.
Let's randomly not mention the facts Steam (the ones who allegedy 'enable' those sites) routinely nukes those sites names and URLs off the community by filtering them and acting against users spamming and advertising them.
It's all the umpteen loaded debate fueled by anger towards Steam because that drives juicy clicks and visits to Youtube and 'gaming news' sites. Not really worth debating it for longer, as it's a giant with feet of clay.
