21 days agoOne of the things I’d like to put on the table is that most people who spend thousands of hours on video games are actively engaging on a mental level, most people spend thousands of hours in front of a TV basically disassociating. Could I be going out training to climb everest sure, that’s not what I want to do, and the same could be said for most people who don’t play video games.
That’s fair. I guess my point was more it isn’t a problem unique to video games and people tend to overlook their vices and say well at least I’m not addicted to <insert different time sink>.
