The problem is those "games" are still praying on people with addiction issues even if they have no payout.

As far as I'm aware, the addiction is on gambling. If there is no money return, there is literally no gambling occurring.

I'm strongly against lootboxes and very concerned about videogames that are effectively casinos, but what the op described is just a videogame

I am not against gambling. I enjoy it myself on occasion, and I would not ban it. But still idea of gambling for money without chance to win money back... That just feels next step exploitation.

I do understand the dopamine process of demo games on casino sites, but still. Allowing people to pay for that...
