They're not real people, so you're free to disregard any empathy with them. Even if it's not a violent video game, it's cathartic watching them suffer.

Same reason you enjoy most things in game. Overcoming a challenge. Also positive reinforcement through points, EXP, gold, etc. Combat is just one of the most obvious and easy to design challenges you can put in a game.

It always interested me that a vast majority of video games involve killing people. But it's just human nature to kill, almost every animal on the planet does it and we're no different. Humans have been telling stories of great heroes who kill their enemies for hundreds of years, there's war all around us and it's never ending.

Gang violence is the actions of a group.

A school shooting is the action of a person.

Nobody will strongarm a person into doing a school shooting, but people can and will force others into their gangs through intimidation and violence.

Justifying doesn't mean "saying why it's okay to do X action" by a universal standard.

The people who do school shootings could have got help and possibly prevent the end result.
The people who are brought into gangs don't get that option.

It's not even remotely similar to a gang shooting though.

I was under the impression it was an accumulative mechanism having to do with our propensity for violence, war & mastery of skills.

Hence, the defeat of ones enemy is the ultimate end game of our mastery of our field craft, the art of war, and the act of violence.

TLDR; Feels good to kill the deserving. ( I never enjoyed fucking Manhunt, good god that shit was fucked up. )

Dug the fuck out of sand raker murderer # 3-7 tho.

people who do school shootings are mentally deranged and not likely to go get help by themselves

>>322785131
Because males are biological my hardwired with the desire to kill each other, which is why violent media has long been so popular with men. It provides an outlet to release that urge without harming anyone.

This is why people who are all anti-violence in both reality and fiction are retarded. It's also why they're usually female.
>>
>>322789423
They are not likely to get help but most people will view it as they could have got help.

Or they will view their circumstances as being much different than a gang shooting.

It is why the group mentioned in >>322786281 compares it to fighting instead of gang violence.

The circumstances behind it are a lot different so they will try and get their next most comparable thing that makes their group look good , which is the actions of the individual.

You are experiencing satisfaction.

Video games allow the beta male (yourself) to indulge in their primal need for violence.

In the historic past this would have been accomplished through warfare since the beta male is the warrior of the human species.

You're flat out saying people join and operate in gangs without choice. If a person doesn't have choice, they can't be held accountable for their actions. So you're basically saying gang members' behavior is justified according to their situation.
>>
Because it is fun in real life. Humans do this all the time, through their whole history, even right now, this very moment there is a man somewhere in Syria getting his guts ripped out and burned alive screaming in agony, sex slave woman screaming and crying while being gang raped. Think about it.
>>
>>322793049
>Have to shoot other gang
>Or get your family harmed and possibly killed if you don't just get yourself killed
Their behavior is justified in that situation and they do it is right to them because of what will happen if they don't.

What is right to them isn't right to you because you aren't in that circle and circumstances haven't put you into that same situation.

They do not always have the choice to decide not to do a gang killing.

But there are also gang members that openly embrace being in a gang and happily accept these scenarios.
>>
>>322791867
Like I said, you probably don't talk to a lot of black guys.

The enemies do break up decently dynamically, piece by piece. They do not just "blow up" into random bits, and you can even break bodies and cut bodyparts into smaller bits.
