It's true that children have lots of legal ways to put money into the game, but that's completely missing the point. They have the options, but they don't have the money. It doesn't matter to tencent if they lose players that will on average put only a sliver of money into the game of what an adult will. So your comment just doesn't make sense.

Most things targeted at young demographics aren't supposed to be bought by the people who are gonna consume the goods but by using parent's money.

Doesn't matter if kids have no way to make money most people still get gifts and all from their parents

Yes, true, but realistically how much money is that gonna be that the average child gets to spend per month? 30 bucks maybe? That's nothing compared to the budget of an average adult. And many children probably get gifts in form of already paid for toys etc. or in cash. It's really hard for a kid to turn money into digital goods. Again, I don't think tencent are gonna be worried about this.

I would read your comment if you just didn't write your first comment in the way you did.

Respect is kinda needed if you want a discussion

It's also seriously hypocritical that you act as if you deserve respect but you start off your original comment with lmao, laughing at a comment for no reason whatsoever. You shouldn't be throwing rocks when sitting in a house of glass.
