I've been saying this for awhile, and on top of it you've got microtransaction and loot boxes which are essentially online games of chance which under the lottery rules and regulations aren't even allowed in some states and provinces on top of it they're marketed towards the children. I think in the future when we look back at this time we're going to see gaming companies that have gone bankrupt in order to pay for the gambling addictions and long-term damaging effects that these are on children and or adults. Developing and forming the brain of vulnerable players to become addicted to gambling and who knows what other types of effects I could have on addictions if the brain is developed into becoming addicted to gambling it's such a young age. I really think the parents need to monitor their kids and understand what they're doing just because something is a game does not mean that it's for children for example I don't know how many times there's been kids like 12 years old in online party chats on Playstation with adults and also playing rated r games which I find f terrifying and so happy I don't have kids so if there are parents reading this please don't let your kid have a microphone and be unsupervised and please don't be an enabler to their wanting to get items for a game out of supply drops and
and please understand that these are merely the equivalent of scratch off tickets marketed towards children.
