Fate Grand Order

Parents of a 12 year old are threatening google over a new mobile game. Fate Gran Order is a Japanese mobile game that launched back in 2015. Being one of the highest grossing games in the mobile industry it has become one of the flagships of Sony´s revenue for the past 2 years. Almost reaching the high amount of 5% of total sales in the anual Sony profit numbers.



But this game while fun as it can be is also a double edged weapon, mobile games such as Candy Crush or Castle Royale are known for in game microtransaction. But stead of simply buyin lives, in FGO the in game currency has much more leverage and can lead into an unhealthy behaviour.

This is the case of Jamie McCormick (12 Year old) who in the past day spent over 3 thousand dollars in "saint Quartz" the Fgo Currency. Using his mother phone, he had no idea that he was actually trading real money for more quartz to roll the gacha.

According to Jamie "I wanted the golden guy, he looks badass and that cat girl has some nice bazoongas". Those were the reasons why he kept spending money until he got what he wanted. It was not until his mother Judy received a phone call from her credit card company telling her about the recent spending.

Outraged the parents called for the autoroties along google for a refund, who decided to give back the money spent to the user as a reimburse into their count. Despite this, the parents are more than angry to see how this game led their son to this compulsive spending.

"I thought it was just a nice game, but after a closer look I realsied he was not only using real money, but the cahracters were scantaliy clad women with thongs showing." -Stated Judy after reaching her.

Jamie McCormick grandfather (97, WWII veteran) who was babysitting while this happened also had to say " Those japs got us good, we thought we pinned them down with the nukes. But they got us back with their chinese cartons. Making our children hopeless virgins who can´t do shit. Miyazaki was right, Anime was a mistake"
