To gamble using money you have to perform microtransaction.
Be it purchasing in-game points, in-game key for lootbox or anything else so you can START a gamble.

Is it gambling if you buy those lootboxes with iG currency (like Hearthstone's earned gold or OVerwatch's credits)?
It can still be harmful to some (kids, weak minded people, idk) even if it just works with iG currency, then pulling you in to put in just a few bucks more... starting off as an entry point to make people less reluctant to use real money and start a microtransaction?

Labeling stuff only helps so much and ultimately the biggest problem is the consumers.

I would have preferred three versions
1. Full version with micro transactions enabled
2.Children's version with micro transactions not included in the game and the ability to make purchases within game removed ( I would purchase this version)
3.Full version with ability to password protect against micro transactions.

How about something that shows how much all the extra content would ultimately cost you.
Instead of just $60 you could spend up to $348.37 (for instance)
You know, the content that used to be in the base games or was released later as a way to thank the community. Now we get stripped down games with immediately available "extra" content. What a sham.
