Is it possible Disney execs simply did not recognize that an in-game mechanic not commonly called "gambling" was in fact gambling? Is it possible when they do a more thorough analysis, they may be upset by this?

Having not played Diablo, I'm not very familiar with the history.
I know DII at least had a significant secondary player market for items, but the idea of loot boxes being "the main pitch" is new to me.
Can you elaborate on what you mean by that?
I can't answer your question without breaking NDA.
edit: Okay, I get that this is being downvoted for not contributing to discussion, but I just wanted to be clear about why I'm not chiming in on this one in particular, given that I'm generally very actively involved in discussions about stuff like this.
I enjoyed working at EA very much, and I enjoyed working with the folks at Disney/Lucas as well.
And as for the person who said 'just violate your NDA' - I openly associate this username with my real name and provide my contact information in my profile. I don't believe in hiding behind a username - this is me, these are my thoughts and opinions, not some amped-up avatar that I use to blow off steam on the internet.
