The Ethics of Free-To-Play Video Games
In the first of the Lost Episodes of Bulletin Broadcast, the boys set out to discuss their favourite free-to-play games. The conversation very quickly derails, but into the very interesting topic of the ethics of free-to-play games. Should they be regulated, and if so how? Is there a way to balance the ease of access of free-to-play with removing the often predation of its player base?
