These laws will ban rewards for spending money within a game for the first time, ban rewards for buying consecutive microtransactions, and ban rewards for daily log-ins.

    Didn’t China also recently introduce a limit of hours adolescents can game?

    The world would be a better place without those transactions in my opinion. It might sound extreme but in my view this is the first step towards gambling addiction.

    We as humanity are becoming really obsessed with everything digital instead of spending more time physically interacting with our peers. And unfortunately I am no exception.

      Not recently, but yes.

      Also, there’s regulation to disclose the probability in getting rewards from opening “chests”, which is actually gambling in nature.
