Loved this game. Deep, engaging story, unique setting, a great looking game and very enjoyable combat. The mechanics revolving arond Scree were also a lot of fun and were very innovative. The 4 demon types added variety and were all fun to play as. Another thing was the soundtrack from 16Volt, a brilliant band and the music fit so well. The game is still available on the PSN store and I would recommend it.

The reason why lootboxes are dangerously close to - if not worse than - gambling is because of the flashy lights and sound effects that encourage habitual behaviour exhibited in (perhaps to a greater effect than) slot machines, moreso than their financial cost (which in this game's case is nothing). Pokémon GO eggs are lootboxes because they have those exact same problems. There's a slow build up, chimes, a flash of light and the contents are revealed, just like any loot box ever made for the chemical rush. Compare this to the trading card game (TCG) where contents didn't change in the packet [no tampering from the manufacturers' end, and there's a papertrail to prove it], and simply rustled in tightly packed sellophane. This is like arguing Mann Co. crates (GO's eggs) aren't lootboxes because you purchase the keys (GO's incubators) to unlock the crates you get free, which before 'lootbox' entered the lexicon was an argument. I'm aghast that the editor didn't look at this and think "nope" unless it's to cash in on the upcoming game's hype. But then, they also approved this.

Something I find fascinating is that when Adolf was Putin office, his klan was constantly calling the true Americans things such as snowflake, butt-hurt, whiny, and cry babies. Yet I don't recall s single terrorist attack from us to try to overturn the election. Sure there were mass protests, but we didn't storm the capitol and cost people their lives. We didn't make terroristic threats. We didn't form a cult called Qanon (seems suspiciously similar to Ganon doesn't it) to try to whip their mindless drones into a frenzy ready to attack at a moments notice, or completely without notice. We kept our manners and accepted 4 years of an American Holocaust, until the 2020 election. Then we ousted the little crybaby, aka Diaper Don, who didn't even have the grace to attend the inauguration, and keep the tradition of a meeting to pass the torch to the next president. Also the previous 3 presidents all secured a second term. Clinton, Bush, and the greatest President in American history, President Obama. That's 24 years occupied by only three presidents. If none had been elected to a second term it would have been six. Even though Bush was dumb as a rock, and threw us into the worst recession since 1929, he still got a second term. What's that tell you?
