Weird 2010's gamer nationalism meets china bad.
"Oh no, kids won't be able to use games to escape reality now" — Good, have them play outside or read a book or something.
"Horrible, I couldn't live without games" — Yes, this law is attempting to help people before they become like you.
"New generations won't grow up to be gamers now" — How will society survive!
"It's about controlling freedom of thought" — Ah, yes, this will stop the great dialogue had by fourteen-year-olds in LoL game chats.
There are Ryzen APUs which are still widely available and will run most games perfectly fine.

isn't there initial costs for other hobbies as well? you need camping equipment to camp, musical instruments to play music, hiking equipment for hiking.
my cousin plays gta on his 300 dollar laptop that his dad bought for online classes. while it won't get a billion fps or look photo realistic, it works fine for him. gaming can be expensive or cheap, like almost every other hobby.
the budget pc+pirated game combo i mentioned is very popular in "developing" countries.
