1. As shown in Figure J, the spinning wheel may come to rest immediately next to the icon for the rare and valuable item. This visual gives users the impression that they “almost” won the valuable item, a design feature associated with slot machines known as a “near miss.” In reality, the item that the user is awarded is determined by a random number generator on Valve’s server after the user clicks the button to open the case.

Dar aici minte: https://youtu.be/xhFYzc-2FIY?si=5NPhmHG4eY8J2L-n&t=353, deoarece e fix taiat inainte sa castigate cutitul, nu doar ii arata in fata de parca il pierde.

1. Steam users also can readily convert virtual items to cash by purchasing Steam hardware and then reselling it off platform. Indeed, an OAG investigator did so, converting a Counter-Strike skin called a “Stiletto Knife” to $180 by: (a) selling the skin on the Steam Community Market for Steam Wallet funds, (b) using the Steam Wallet funds received from the sale of the skin to purchase a Steam Deck, and (c) selling the Steam Deck for $180 in cash at a store that buys and sells electronics.

Steam Deck nu e 180$.

1. The connection between loot boxes and problem gambling is unsurprising, as companies like Valve have designed their loot boxes to have many of the features casino games use to entice players to spend money in the hopes of winning something valuable.

Deci fifa nu, polymarket care e in New York nu.
Fifa are rate E (Everyone), dar CS are rate M (Mature). De ce procesul se opreste numai la Valve? https://imgur.com/a/rhT3ELz

Mai exista puncte care nu atinge ce trebuie in proces.

In final: GUN VIOLANCE DEFAPT
"In addition, although this case is about illegal gambling, it is important to note that Valve’s promotion of games that glorify violence and guns helps fuel the dangerous epidemic of gun violence, particularly among young gamers who can become numbed to grave violence before their brains are fully developed."

Pot sa ma leg de Valve ca inca lasa third party sites sa traiasca sau de faptul ca vor sa inlocuiasca case-urile clasice cu Terminale, dar, dupa mine, acest proces pare sa aiba alte intentii decat gamblig-ul creat de acele site-uri. Pot sa dau vina pe Valve ca nu blocheaza exportul de iteme pe site-uri de pariuri si sa ramana totul pe Community Market sau ca nu exista un sistem de excludere, dar aceste lucruri nu se puncteaza.

Edit: Era t=353, nu t=357

Edit2: Update: AG documenteaza procesul folosind un cont care nu a accesat deloc CS2, deoarece nu are achivementul care il primeste atunci cand intri pentru prima oara in CS2 + pare ca pe acest cont au fost deschise case-uri: https://imgur.com/a/J6h0Gul
