I think its mostly because its the original TCG 15th anniversary sale.
Also they do have the sequel released already too so its basically nothing loss doing a big sale on the first game
You want to turn the man into a terrorist?how about "NieR" and "Blue Point"?
Hardware exclusives made sense when games were cheaper to make, and porting games between platforms was harder due to radically different hardware. Y'know, when consoles actually had hardware that was cutting-edge at the time of their release.
There miiiight be some tools to mass-add them, since they're in a JSON file? Or, something like that. What are you wanting to do this for? I'm guessing it's a Linuxy thing.

New York sues video game developer Valve, says its 'loot boxes' are gambling
New York's attorney general sued Valve, a video game developer whose franchises include Counter-Strike, Team Fortress and Dota, accusing it of violating state gambling laws and threatening to addict children through its use of "loot boxes."

finally some good news
Selling you $1600 skins should be banned as well XD
The US should shut the fuck up with anything regarding gun violence tbh
Lootboxes, TCG packs, blindboxes, etc should all be banned. They're all enabling a form of gambling on children, even if you do get something in return of some amount of value.
Here's the full lawsuit.
The main crux which separates CS from other games is that their skins can be resold via the Steam market and third party sites and the NYAG alleges that constitutes Valve operating an illicit casino. Ironically if lootbox items were account locked there probably wouldn't be a complaint.
As this is only a state suit, worst that'll happen is lootboxes are banned only in New York. But the walls are closing in on lootboxes and I think Valve knows that as they haven't released a new lootbox in nearly a year and tried new forms of monetization such as terminal cases. (I can guarantee Deadlock won't have a single lootbox). Brazil has a new law starting next month that bans lootboxes for under 18s and Valve has been mum about what they're going to do there. Also the EU has proposed a similar law wrt lootboxes for under 16s (but this hasn't passed yet and may take years to materialize).

I played Deadlock and accidentally joined a cult.
Weird how other countries enjoy these violent video games but have a tiny fraction of gun violence. I wonder what their secret is.
