Parent's fault for giving kid's some payment info. it may be a shocker to you, but when you buy a game - you can play it without linking your credit card to it, hence making it impossible to buy anything in-game.
I agree about changing the label for such games, though to be honest it is silly to rely just on the label in my opinion. But the issue will remain - right now games, later something much expensive. Kid having your credit card info is just a ridiculuous situation no matter how you look at it.

Company's fault for knowingly exploiting parents fuck up's and exploiting people with gambling addictions.
Its almost like I just say both are at fault for different reasons.
Also once again you don't need a credit card to buy loot box's and the core part of this topic is the fact that child gamblers have quadrupled.

You haven't explained how that is possible.... You linked to a video that didn't mentioned that purchases were made without credit cards nor explained how it could be done..
Only way for you to buy lootboxes without credit cards is to use game cards, which the parents would have to buy or give the kids access to their credit cards so they can buy enough game cards to empty their bank accounts.

That can be one way about it, There is many ways it can happen.
But once again why would any parent expect that their child could empty out their bank account while playing a game of FIFA that is rated E.
Why does a E rated Title have Gambling in it to begin with?
Gambling is a Adult thing and any game with it should be labeled as such.
Once again for the over 9000th time, Both are at fault for different reasons.

With what money? Parent's money. So it all, AGAIN, comes down to parents giving out money to kids and not controlling on how it gets spent, or educating how it must be spent. If you go by this logic though - a kid would spend money on new games as well, not just game cards.

Someone making idiotic choices doesn't mean they've been exploited
Also, we have plenty of cases and laws being put in place because of the ratings and the gambling part of loot boxes, so evidently its not ok. Doesn't mean it isn't 100% parents fault for giving credit card info to people who can't be responsible with them or make research as of why they would need credit card info.
Would you say that it was the stores fault if a parent gave the credit card info to some online account for a toy or candy store and then let their kid go ham on it?

Don't deflect and you didn't answer the bottom part.
Once again why is it ok for Company's to exploit bad parents and kids?
Why is it ok for the ESRB to not do its job? Don't deflect, Answer the questions outright.
Hate to break it to you but if these company's don't start doing their job, The governments will.

Agree. That's bullshit behaviour. Though i put the crafting and tailoring of microtx system into the same bucket with companies just denying or buying time when they're asked how much money they're getting via this sketchy systems.
To me it sounds like the good old pyramid systems, where gullible people are responsible for themselves, but in the end responsibility falls also in the hands of the ones creating and marketing them.
