Just been thinking about this last little while so wanted to share it and get other opinions on this.
Kids these days choose variety of games to play Ps3/ps4, xbox or games on android/ios etc. When I was younger I remember when I played online nfl or hockey or NBA while a lot of kids also played call of duty etx games. There was never money involved but ranks and records etc. I am 40 years old now and make enough that I can afford to spend on tsb 2018. Sometimes do go over budget..
But when I think about what if my young nephews or cousins in school or college start playing this game, how can they afford to compete in this game with part time or no jobs but an allowance.
Its easier said that well they can choose a different game but young blood have a lot of competitiveness in them. They might take good or bad paths to achieve what they want.
Anyways, I'm just trying to say that sports entertainment is evolving and it's not a lot different from gambling anymore. There needs to be some way for young youth to play at a level where they can enjoy it without breaking their wallet.
The terms and agreement for tsb states that one must be 13 years old or 16 If in Europe. Seems like Europe atleast protecting their youth to be wise enough at age of 16 to make a choice. 13 year old is too young to be playing this game in us/Canada cause the risk of addiction and spending more then their means is real high.
I am not blaming anyone as this is the reality of top entertainment these days and there could be some measures taken so that young ones can compete and enjoy the game.
