Well yeah. 1. They've now been raised on this shit and 2. They haven't been raised to understand the value of money.

  1. Look at the state of new releases

It’s much better use of money to invest in a game they like than it is to buy a new one

It’s also easier for kids who may pay for this stuff with their allowance. Telling them to save up $60 for a game is a harder sell for companies than just having them pay $10-$20 now on either in-game currency or a monthly subscription.

I'm with you on both points. Kids don't know anything lol.

Kids know what they’re taught.

Right but depending on their environment, may not be much.
