Basic questions that need to be asked
I have been playing Apex Legends since it came out and I love the game. I have had no issue with buying in-game content because I love playing this game and don't mind supporting a game that I play a...

Taunting in-game is playful, as friends would do with each other.
Companies usually take part of LGBTQ+ related events as it's celebrated globally.
Events related to veterans, police officers and so forth can be related to a single country, whilst raising awareness does help, it's not going to reach many players throughout the world.
Pushing support for LGBTQ+ is pretty important since it's pretty much still in it's early stage, whereas other holidays have been around for a while.
Now some games do events for certain holidays, though it's possible that this just doesn't fit Apex's business strategy as updates just get pushed here and there.
Technically the content 16 year olds were recommended would be more years ago than it would be now.
I mean to you can enlist to the army at 17, I don't think that single year would matter much if we were to include said violence.
These ratings are pretty much set up so people don't get influenced by content, as far I know, 16 years old don't just take over the behaviour of games.
What is the purpose of all this being pushed on younger people/people in general? If it's a world view, for example, celebrating holidays, since Apex is available to play in many countries, than that seems to be even more exclusive and biased. There is no one specific age being pointed out here, at least by me. Kids of very young ages, including some under the age of 10 play this game. Obviously, there are a lot of adults who do too. There is no denying there is toxic behaviour in this game even with all the in-game content features not being in the picture. That's just the nature of playing these types games.There most definitely is an appeal to this game that young people catch on to.The LGBTQ topic was simply one example. There are, for example, badges in-game such as "Stop Asian Hate" and "Black Lives Matter" and an LGBTQ flag. This is incredibly political, specifically American politics, for a battle royale video game, and the narrative is very much so one sided. What is the point of these obvious political narratives in a video game?
