The rapid descent of gaming into capitalism hell paired with gamers being staunchly pro-capitalism is just the right kind of irony.

    China banning this stuff could really affect the entire global market. If China and EU both ban it then it's gameover because there will simply be no point in making two completely different games for the different markets. It won't matter if the US and other territories don't ban it.

      I’ll teach my kids Mandarin if it means I can stop scanning their Fun Time Kids ABC apps for secret slot machines and coercive membership plans.

      There are so many apps that let a kid fully customize their character only to tell them when they go to save that they used “premium” items and that it will cost $20/month to keep them
