Because I believe regulations are not necessary when consumers have ample freedom to either partake in or reject the predatory experience. Especially when they limit creative freedom.
We are essentially discussing if a game can be always-online and terminate service once the developers are done with it. My answer to this is of fucking course it can. If you make this type of game I won't buy it. But if others will, all power to them. Why the fuck should I stop people from playing WoW, Genshin Impact, Guild Wars 2? If they want to do that, all the power to them.
The only situation that worries me is if a customer gets into an always online live service game without being aware of it. But nowadays it is so easy to know if you look at reviews. People have no excuse being stupid.
Anyway, if the law was limited to simply marking live service games and letting customers decide for themselves, I would support it. But no, the skiggers want to place regulations on developers and tell them how they should develop their games.
