If I had a kid I definitely wouldn't let them play videogames that require credentials. Kids aren't supposed to have an online present so why on Earth would a kid have an email address? If the game doesn't allow local multiplayer then they better start playing Tetris or some other crap.
Also these games are riddled with microtransactions, why do freakin' Minecraft and Roblox offer microtransactions!? That's predatory behavior on kids.
