Obviously, cash shops should be banned in games immediately.

Upvoted specifically for that last part.

They try to make balantro a 18+ game because it resembles a card game. Meanwhile fifa is for 3+ year old and it's just a card oprning game where they fish money from some sad football fans and children. I have no faith in anyone in charge of that

I have to think part of this is just all the ancient representatives we have. They've lived long enough to know what gambling looks like, and what good ol' sports ball looks like, and by golly nobody can tell 'em any different!
