The important issue with the Lotto system wasn't that the rewards were good or bad or whatever, it's the way the rewards were distributed.

Essentially

Tier 1 Reward: Really good
Tier 2 Reward: Amazing, probably better than Tier 1 for most people
Tier 3 Reward: Pretty good
Tier 4 and 5: Trash

If it had just been that a handful of people would get a Tier 1 or 2 reward and everyone else would get Tier 3-5 then most people would have accepted it, hey, that's how lotteries are, usually you don't win. You're jealous of the guy who got the amazing rewards but it's not the end of the world.

The issue was that they made the distribution generous enough that about 50-60% of the playerbase got at least one Tier 1 or Tier 2 reward.

So it wasn't just "A few people got lucky, good for them", it was "About half the players you know got a bunch of amazing rewards and you got shit all." It pretty much divided the game in half, gave hundreds of dollars worth of free shit to one half, and told the other half to eat a dick.

Obviously people weren't very happy.
