no shit

if I didn't have media to escape to, I think I'd release my aggression against people, and frankly I don't wanna do that because my problems shouldn't be theirs

Think of it this way.


>Come to a busy street
>Traffic going at high speed, green light, but you need to cross the road
>8 year old you doesnt play video games
>Get the thrill of thinking, I'll cross the road! nothing can happen!
>Let thrill consume you and cross and get mauled by cars as roadkill

compared to:

>Come to a busy street
>Traffic going at high speed, green light, but you need to cross the road
>8 year old you plays video games
>Because 8 year old you plays video game, you know that jumping into traffic will kill you.
>Do the sensible thing and walk away, as you always get your thrill in videogames.

That's absolutely fine. Who the fuck are you to tell people how to live? Especially on 4chan of all places, belt up faggot

Don't you know? Fun is only healthy if it's socially normal, like watching sports or keeping up on celebrity news. Your fun is abnormal and you should be shamed for having it at all.

sarcasm aside I hate it when people assume fun of any kind is unhealthy manchild escapism. Sports fans tend to be much more obsessed with sports than nerds are with video games anyways.

I'll never stop loving Carol but goddamn if Rachel wasn't the best thing to ever happen to Countdown.

Sometimes, sometimes just for fun, depends of my mood.

The government does just that so the common mass of unhappy people don't revolt due to the corruption of the system.

As long as people are entertained they won't revolt.

Sports fans beat the ever living shit out of people for talking shit about their teams

Gamers throw verbally offensive words at each other over a mic.

You tell me which one is more likely to become a serial killer.

>>339187030
all work and no play etc etc

What if whether you become a success or a failure in life isn't up to some dead fucking thing, no really, from the hardware you use to play on to the software that carries its content, it never asked you to spend 12 hours a day going for alternative routes in Mongolian VNs.

This is all on you, nobody else, stop pointing fingers trying to find something to blame.

>>339187030
I just play games because i've got nothing to do, nothing to escape from other than boredom.

Entertained and are able to eat

Videogames are a thrill vent.

In video games I can go to places and experience things in other countries and fantasy lands. I can play a fun game with guns or swords.

Would I ever hold a gun or sword? Fuck no. Would I ever take a life, FUCK fuck no,

I'm prefectly content living in my country, ion my city till the day I die, I don't need an excuse to go visit some other shithole when I can enjoy it in the comfort of my own home.
>>
>>339189139
Truth spoken here. Any change you want in life is on you to make happen.

Video games aren't making people lazy. It's just what happens when people spend 12 hours a day seemingly locked to a computer.

Shut up dad, you're drunk.

>B-but the videogames tempted me! as a consumer i was lied to! its those evil corporations who sold me lies! his is just like when mcdonalds made me fat by selling me 14 hamburgers a day!
