Message: [QUOTE="Clippy, post: 11648, member: 8560"] This is something that concerns me greatly as well and we don't even need to go to any extremes like people born in 2024. We already have a budding young generation who were raised on smartphone and tablet gaming. Kids who are growing up with in-app purchases, lootboxes and microtransactions. In their eyes all those modern business practices that we find abhorrent aren't just okay, they're normal. They don't know any other model. As someone who deals with teenagers IRL quite a few of them see paying for a skin or an emote as something that people just do. Not something you unlock by performing a feat in the game. Something you ask your parents to pay for. That bothers me a lot because it means we will probably never see gaming industry return to form ever again. Well, at least we got to experience the golden age I suppose. [/QUOTE]
