Nothing inside a video game should cost real money. Ban the entire business model.Why not just not play them if you don't like them?

I'm confident in the EU eventually tackling this. They're proving to be the forefront of human rights in the world right now.We are under constant attack from lobbying, foreign money, corruption and failing allied states looking to hurt us. Other countries should be championing these causes also.

And they’re planning to destroy your games after a set amount of years where one can no longer even look at the mtx one may mistakenly bought.
