Over the years there has been the discussion if an RCE is actually a disguised casino, or if it is an entity on its own.
Now since this horse ha been beaten to death and beyond; there is only one way to know it once and for all.
This in matter is to ask each each country's cyber crime (since on-line gambling is illegal in many countries) or gambling division to investigate.
Now to summarize what EU is not:
a subscription game, since there is no monthly fee.
a Freemium game, since there is no way to play for free. Even if you trade "free" stuff, the other player had to deposit for this. Or simply, MA does not provide any for of free game-play in what it calls it's main activities beyond the tutorial missions.
Now, you can start a discussion here about whether you think EU is a casino or not; but this is not the scoop of the thread. The scoop of the thread is if governments think EU is a game.
And yes I am aware that PE was not considered a casino by Sweden over 10 years ago.
I'm very curious what the official reactions will be; although I think they won't think they will prioritize very highly on their list.
