Coffeezilla did a 3-part series about how CS2 skin gambling is flourishing and hooking children as young as 12 and Valve is profiting from its inaction to crack down on it.
But they did shut down the dota 2 gambling. I dont know why cs is different.
I don't see why valve is responsible tho? Blame the gambling sites.
Buying them randomly and being able to trade them is the a distinct decision and it powers this industry. They could shut this off immediately if they wanted to, but they profit from it.
So we take away the market functionality from all players because 3rd party sites misuse it for gambling?
What a dumbshit take, sorry to say.
