Gacha. I can tolerate lootboxes but when lootboxes are the central feature, I'm out.

The only good implement is the Zelda ToTK gacha machines. All the fun of gacha with none of the monetary expense!

Nintendo is the only company i know that gets it right. Most of their gachas are for optional collectibles and you can rig the odds in your favor by filling the machines with tokens you collect in-game
