How could I allow my game to be played in regions restricting paid random items?
Easy! Remove paid random items.
How would things such as gamepasses be made unbuyable? Since they can provide a luck boost.
Easy. Put them off sale so they cannot be purchased!
So you can’t restrict them by api, ok.
Slightly unfortunate, since some games with such aren’t banned in said countries.
Use devproduct instead of gamepass. Restrict buying of devproduct rather than gamepass.
There’s no need to remove all paid items from your game, just remove them for certain players.
I have thought of that, but would people rather own a gamepass, instead of just the perks.
Also is something like a double money gamepass the same thing as a luck gamepass, in terms of not being allowed. I would assume so?
Depends. If you can spend money on crates → rng item then yes, that’s prohibited.
If you can spend money on luck upgrade → rng related, yes, prohibited
If you can spend money on item which not involves rng part → allowed
Prohibition takes higher priority than allowance, even if there’s 1 point which should be prohibited - system will be prohibited too.
Do you think that having no purchases for the uk playerbase would affect statistics like payer conversion, and negatively affect for example recommendation.
Yes, it will affect that.
