@NotPatrick Oh dear - http://www.pcgamer.com/us-lawmaker-who-called-out-star-wars-battlefront-2-lays-out-plans-for-anti-loot-box-law/ … Seems pretty heavy handed.
Yep! If you put a Jim video in front of someone who doesn't understand the industry, well... It's easy to see how you'd come to that conclusion. Especially when so many consumers are rather caught up in the whole fight against loot boxes.

From what I can see the market is punishing these companies anyway. Battlefront & Shadow of War both sold under expectations if I recall. Massive backlash from that sports game also (NBA I think?).

About the legislation aspect specifically: I think an "under 21 ban" will never never never EVER happen. And I don't know that guy but I very much doubt he knew video games existed before this controversy. Feels like an easy media grab, which is impossible to follow.
