Executive vice president of Epic Games Saxs Persson stated that they should reduce the user-created monetization below 18 where it is permissible. "We are 18-plus, but what does Epic think about monetizing under-18s' creations, and paying out to creators? "Well, in regions where it is permissible, yes we should lower that age. But we started at something that is like, unilaterally: this is professional labor. People have signed up for professional payments. There are a lot of things to really think deeply about, like how you want to fund this ecosystem of creators, and how you make creativity available to all. It's a goal of ours, obviously. There's a lot of Lego creators that want to still express themselves, [who] can't right now because of how these rules work, and we should work to mindfully change that, where we can. But right now we're 18-plus."
