Indeed, the integration of gambling-like features in video games is a topic that has generated a lot of discussion recently. These features have fundamentally altered the way players engage with games. The thrill of opening a loot box or the allure of in-game purchases can make games more addictive and engaging, sometimes overshadowing the core gameplay experience. While these features can provide a sense of excitement, they also come with ethical concerns.

You're completely correct. The inclusion of game elements resembling gambling, like loot boxes and in game transactions has sparked debates. While these features boost player involvement and revenue generation they also raise worries, about addiction, underage gambling and exploitation.
