: Don't get me wrong, I think that it's a genius marketing technique.
: "Limited special collector's edition" is like catnip to fans,
: and Loot Crates take full advantage of that. There's also some
: legitimately cool stuff in there. I just assumed that a Loot Crate would
: be more like the Legendary Edition of Halo Reach, custom cardboard box and
: everything short of the game.
I don't think there would be any way for the economics of that to work out. The subscription boxes seem to basically operate by offering up enough broad quality merch to interest people and then knick-knacks that are cheaper to fill things out. I don't think I've seen any sub boxes that go really high-end because the price would put people off from subscribing. I guess in that way it's not really any different from a print magazine—you aren't gonna' keep subscribing unless there's a threshold of quality versus the dreck.
There's a lot of cool stuff in all of these, and I like the figures together, but as it is I'm desperately trying to reduce the amount of stuff I have. Keeping the grunt plushy, but all my Halo book and game purchases now (where possible *stares darkly at Halo Mythos*) are digital and I'm probably going to convert most of my physical Halo books digital over time.
