Yeah, sometimes it's not about finding the "perfect" solution, but taking 100 small steps that each move things in the right direction.
I wonder if they care about not selling M rated Fifa to minors though
I can't think of many minors who would be able to afford a game, so it'll be the parents buying it anyway.
I could see it helping.
"I have to inform you that this game is rated M for Mature, and isn't suitable for minors."
"What? It's just football, isn't it?"
"It says this game has gambling that uses real world money."
I don't know how many sales it'd stop, but at least parents would know.
