Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Loot box |
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | The animation is used to show the types of visual effects that are used as part of the psychology tied to the opening of loot boxes in video games, specifically showing the shaking box (anticipation of opening), the brief moment where the items received are unknown but their rarity shown by their color, and the final presentation to the player. These elements are discussed in text with sources. |
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
It would be impossible to recreate the look and feel of the animation effects by a freely supplied image. As loot boxes are directly related to commercial games, there is very little chance that a game under a free license will ever come out to use loot boxes in this manner. |
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Words cannot readily demonstrate some of the special effects used within the animation. |
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | Reduced from its original size to be under 0.1MP. The length of the animation is only a few seconds, and far less than the full time of even a typical match in Overwatch (<<10%). The animation only shows the essential elements of the loot box opening. |
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
This animation only shows a small portion (under 15 seconds) of game that has numerous potential hours of gameplay. It is too small to be reused to impact the commercial value of Overwatch or the potential assets from it. |
