'This systemic problem doesn't affect me personally, so it can't be serious' is hilarious enough without your list of games it hasn't spread to including a game it has spread to.
I have no remaining patience for libertarianism. This business model is fundamentally abusive. Of fucking course we should regulate that, the same way we regulated gambling, and the same way the DOJ is coming for Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, and the same way the EU has Apple by the nuts. It is perfectly fine for you to say - 'fuck these business practices, for anyone.' The fact that you, personally, can choose to ignore them, doesn't make them any less real for millions of people.
