If that's what they want to take away than fuck them. Focus on the shit that has to do with loot boxes and micro transactions. If they want people to engage more irl the solution isn't to ruin the only outlet I and others have, it's to improve people's lives where they don't view escaping into games as a necessity to get away from depressing reality. Just my two cents.
