Are videogames a waste of time, even if I only play occasionally?
Yeah.
Do you have a compulsive need to use 100% of your time productively? It's okay to just fuck around once in a while. You're only human.

Won't be a waste if you meet people online and build nice friendships. You can learn new things
If you enjoy it, no.

Having fun isn't a waste of time. People need to have some sort of entertainment or you'll get stressed out or depressed.

Its like saying books is a waste of time.
Its a release, an escape into fantasy, a hobby, a pass time, and there are certain skills it can build.
So its just like anything else: Do it in moderation, and its all good.
If its getting in the way of your life, you need to cut back. If youre prone to getting over involved and cant control your life with video games present, then you shouldnt play at all.
