Yeah, most people in this thread are focusing on gen Z, but why can't a minor play video games? What if a kid wants to play a game like Rollercoaster Tycoon or the Sims, must they really be 18 years old? And why does a hardware component then verify that? It's like age verification on a plate before dinner, fucking weird.
