Videogames are trash

Name: Anonymous 2017-09-11 11:18

I'm thinking all this time playing and developing video games is wasted.
Video games are catering to the same zombie-TV experience and dopamine addiction roller-coaster of movie industry. Video game skills are shit and people get way unhealthier with them.
Like when you game, you don't mind eating shit food and pretend you live in the game.
But you can't live in the game or escape from life like that. Escapism is bullshit: the "We reject your reality" cliche is not about freedom, just denial.
Videogames are most degenerative brain functionality i've seen, people warp their minds around the game and plan their life towards better playtime, as if the game was really important. All these speedrunners, progamers, elite players are not gaining anything valuable,
they just adapt their brains into reflexive "game reality" instead of real life.

One day, video games will be treated like cigarette smoking is today.

It will be considered a very bad habit, only partaked in by the underclass. Governments will pass heavy regulations limiting videogame consumption and advertisement. Gamers will be looked down upon as smokers are today. People of the future will look back and say, "how could those cretins have played so many video games all day? they must have been stupid".
