The problem is there but people always so easy to be distracted.

Not to defend the multi billion dollar company but aren’t the gacha mechanics explained in game? If you’re allowing your kids to spend your money in a gacha game then that’s just bad parenting I’m not sorry.






Here’s my take: the average 35+ parent in the world has no earthly clue what a gacha game even is. The games also hide they’re a gacha in their descriptions. They don’t even disclose a single loot box in any of their advertising nor do they mention the price points. The typical mom or dad is going to examine that it’s a 12+ year old rating game, examine the description as well as the “cartoon” visuals and go “this seems fine”. This is deceptive and intentional by the companies because they know parents have no earthly fucking clue about mobile gaming cause most parents don’t play games period or understand the industry the way we do. The kid gets addicted and runs into the price points & how that unfolds is absolutely due to a lack of supervision. Regardless, these companies need to disclose in their marketing and promotions that they are in fact, gacha games that contain gambling elements which falls on a lack of regulation from the government. Parents would see it in the description and say no shot my kid is playing this. Long overdue regulation needed.








The FTC says "Genshin Impact deceived children, teens, and other players into spending hundreds of dollars on prizes they stood little chance of winning." pcgamer.com/games/rpg/ftc-…
