Maybe like a little sticker saying "in game micro transactions," as a warning.
The fuss right now isn't about microtransactions, though a warning about those should be in place (hell, Google's app store has this warning). The problem is about loot boxes.
I agree that the government shouldn't legislate on this. This is the kind of thing you're much better off with the ESRB ratings that the publishers (for now) still deeply care about. I mean, how many times do we hear about games going back to the devs for changes to comply with a less-severe ESRB score?
