If this is true can someone show proof. And if so what law are they talking about and why is it just Hoyoverse why not other gacha game devs?

It was a lawsuit between them and the FTC. Guess that comes with essentially being the face of the industry.

This kills lewd gacha? Minors are all out of luck while adults will be reluctant to dox themselves.

God I fucking hope so. Lewd or not, gatchashit can go straight back to the bowels of hell.
It's always disappointing to occasionally browse this board looking for a decent mobile game to pass time just to be met by a catalog 95% filled with gatchashit. Fuck this cancer.

what does a 3ds cost nowadays? like $100? I never understand you guys, if you want quick casual gaming, buy a used PSP, DS or 3DS, homebrew it, then you have access to the entire library. Or just emulate whatever on your phone. Not sure why you're looking for the console experience on phones, the market has moved passed that over 10 years ago. mobile=gacha get it through your head grandpa

i just read the ftc article on their website
and it's mainly between hoyoverse and ftc because of hoyoverse's supposedly sleazy dishonest tactics in acquiring profits with their gacha system
so it's not an across the board law, it's just punishment for hoyoverse

>american here
it's just politics, they are bullying chinese companies, just like tiktok. it's grandstanding, they don't care about children gambling or whatever because they don't go after american companies like EA. it's a low hanging fruit, a punching bag because mihoyo makes a lot of money. No different than politicians going after DLsite pretending to be anti-porn, while ignoring onlyfans

I didn't have to show them my ID or driver's license or whatever. I just had to enter my birthday (including the year, of course).
