I also love this part:

Earlier this month, game publishing trade association Video Games Europe said the initiative’s proposals “would curtail developer choice”

Well, yes, that’s the point of pretty much any regulation about anything. Curtailing the choice of people abusing the system.

You know who else curtails developer choice by setting arbitrary deadlines and pushing for aggressive monetization? Game publishers. Pretty sure the devs don’t want their game to be universally hated for lootboxes and bugs.
Just look at Battlefront 2, arguably one of the best star wars games ever made and its reputation was irrevocably tanked because the publishers pushed the lootbox model on the game.

Not only did they push for it, but they also made the game extremely predatory by requiring players to grind for an excessively long time 40 hours for just one character. It’s nasty work.

Fucking luke cost 60k credits gtfo with that.
