imagine it

paying tax on ingame purchases.. turns Steam into tax reporting agents of its customers rather than games retailers

so soon you wont be able to play online games without KYC

Only in the US I bet, this is getting out of hands and the current president of the US needs to leave the office for someone better to run, this man is just trying to milk out of every possible thing he can think of, I am hoping that this will only affects all players in the US, I can't do without online gaming, this will suck very bad.

I remembered back then when gamers are very excited about the future of gaming industry as how it was depicted on the anime Sword Art Online (SAO if you know what I mean) yet now it's getting farther and farther from the reality, although we knew that it is close to impossible, doing this act against the gaming community will only leave dreams as dreams. I don't know about other companies but there're few companies who are planning to adopt NFTs such as steam to their gaming experience, and if this new law implemented world wide, how will the players able to afford those taxes? I have been a free to play gamer since the launch of DOTA 2, do we have to go to jail for being unable to pay tax from games? I should've listened to my mom back then and focused on my education.
