The Chinese government will force all MMORPG players to register.

From now on, any Chinese in order to continue to spend 72 hours in the MMORPG without sleeping, bathing and eating for a couple of thousand gold coins, will have to seriously think about ensuring their own anonymity.

Mandatory registration of all players in the MMORPG and other online games will begin this year - for this, anyone who wishes will have to issue a special form, indicating their own real name and ID number. This is done in order to somehow reduce the addictive influence of online games (there are cases when the "Chinese Farmers" forgot their own names during the pumping of numerous virtual embodiments) and control the time spent in the game. And it is also possible because the Chinese government does not like the current situation that has developed almost to the level of the character pumping industry in numerous games and selling virtual currency, with which, of course, no one pays taxes.
