Force government ID and I'm out. Max I'm giving you is DOB.

https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Short_Female_Characters I clicked on 4 among the grand total of 10 characters of this type and don't see what you mean. Do you mean that the miniskirts are supposed to be sexy or something? ...I don't really see it. Maybe it's a cultural thing where as an Asian I don't find that sexy?
Do you mean that the miniskirts are supposed to be sexy or something?
Klee and Nahida's skirts effectively don't even exist - they end at the hip, with exposed undergarments.
It's a good thing you don't see that as sexy on those character models, but imagine those same outfits on conventionally attractive real-world adults. If you're suggesting that miniskirts and exposed midriffs are considered "modestly dressed" then what, exactly, would be immodest to you?

I don't understand. For spending money one requires banking/card information. How children will get their guardian's banking details without their consent?

Have you paid for things on mobile in-app? The operating system stores your info behind a password (or biometric) because adults (non-gambling as well) also hate having to memorize 16 digits flawlessly every time they needed to make payments.

Blame the US for declaring that US minors are too stupid and US parents too neglectful to pay attention to what is purchased online.
They have to kick off kids from their game, legally, and nearly all mobile and online games that have any way to spend real money will be doing the same within the next year.

Good. Gambling is illegal for minors under the age of 18.

Most of the game isn't gambling, to pretend otherwise is just silly. It's like being one of those idiots that pretend counterstrike is gambling.

If there's an otherwise g rated movie with ten minutes of full frontal nudity and hard-core sex what rating do you think that movie is gonna get?

Why would parents' payment info be stored in child's device or user account?

If you think cosmetic lootboxes are comparable to porn, you're too stupid for internet access and your handler should limit your screen time in the future until a cure is found for whatever thing is currently affecting you.

Not everyone buys a separate device for their children or knows how to/can set up a user account.

Ignorance is not an excuse for bad parenting.

Damn, got 'em. Actually, they deserve to lose $16,000 while raising a gambling addict because they didn't pull up their bootstraps and micromanage everything their preteen does in "that colorful game they play."
Mate, asking under-13s to get parent permission is provoking that good parenting you seem to care about anyway—what on earth is the problem?

Parental controls (or just not inputting card details into a phone the child has access to) is a fairly effective way to prevent the child spending the parent's money without then knowing. Micromanagement is not typically considered good parenting; however showing interest in, and having some knowledge of, what your child spends significant time doing is.

Okay. So is requiring under-13s to ask their parents. I don't see what the issue is.

the issue is forcing everyone for giving up sensitive personal information.

Okay. So argue about that then. What does bad parenting have to do with it?

This comment is a parenting related issue, the technicality illiterate might forget to take the proper precautions when letting their child use their phone and blame the game instead of taking responsibility for their actions.

No, you're making it one to sidestep an issue.
If this bad parenting happens often enough to be a real problem, then whining into the wind that "no one has any common sense anymore," or whatever you're doing, isn't a solution.
I do blame the game a little because it's a game that really, really, really wants you to spend money on diamond gem funbucks.
Let me ask you this question, hm? You don't want to show your ID even though we all do that for alcohol—fine. Why not: $80 up front, all banners are periodic DLCs, some of them free, there is more than enough korok seeds in game to get all of them, and they never expire—infinite time to twiddle your thumbs before completing them. Would this not solve your ID problem?
That is, unless you would like to spearhead this global movement to teach underprivileged parents how to configure their phones?

of course thats not a solution. but what can you do? lawmakers wont make laws that make the parents responsible for their negligence. sometimes it's not even intentional negligence, but that they don't even know what should they do, and how can that be done
I do blame the game a little because it's a game that really, really, really wants you to spend money on diamond gem funbucks.
that's fair, I do too. I also blame all the commercial social networks, if I can call them that way
You don't want to show your ID even though we all do that for alcohol—fine.
just let me remind you that that happens offline, and it is provable if copies are not preserved. normally you just show it and that's it.

if someone cannot properly configure their phones, then they need to be made liable for the consequences their negligence causes.

You elect lawmakers.

Fascinating.

So, this is exactly the problem I have with you and the other person. It's this contempt you have for your fellow people. It's extremely selfish. This isn't how you talk to your neighbors. You're not getting invited to any cookouts or block parties with this attitude.
If you and I can agree that children shouldn't be in casinos, then they shouldn't be allowed into the casino. I am open to your suggestions.
