Interesting theory. I've often wondered this myself. I sometimes abuse video gsmes, I think. I'll play total war for hours instead of fixing shot around the house.

Video game addiction is one of the lesser evils.Why would I go to the club to waste my money on drinks, whores and drugs when I can just spend my time and money on something objectively harmless?

Why not talk about the negative effects of /pol/ addiction instead?

One thing I'm 1000% sure it is the factor with anime causing the NEET culture to grow
Anime and games basically kill the work-->long time-->reward, as when you play you get your brain blasted with short term rewards, killing a bunch of dudes and leveling up in 2 matches, winning the world cup in a couple day, etc etc
Mind you I am a NEET myself, so I know what I'm talking about.

>>133713317
How about you start gitting gud instead of complaining?

Lets talk about living your own life and not worrying about what others do with theirs.

This is why I love games that teach you things as you go. Even the Oculus Rift Nasa job of flying around all the planets, moons and significant stars was a total BRAIN-LOVE moment. I kinda wish games had 'positive' reinforcement for studies, and perhaps someone could do research on teaching via games? Government funded teaching games, totally free. Woot. Someone needs to do a REAL study.

Video games stimulate the reward centers of the brain.
Young brains are primed for reward pleasure, so it feels really good to play video games.
However, there are no real rewards to playing video games - it's an illusion. Unless you are a pro gamer.
Males should be guided away from video games and toward activities that offer tangible rewards.
Also the concept of delayed gratification should be emphasized.

Activities like art, music, business, science, learning new skills, etc.

What about games with longer term effort for rewards?
IE, EU4, Dark Souls

During my last year of college I used to be addicted to Dota2. That addition hurt my grades and prevented me from applying to internships, which made it much harder for me to get interviews later on.

Luckily I threw all that shit away and started turning my life around. Got some finance internships at 24 and right now two years later I work for a global top3 investment fund. I'm not saying you cannot recover, but videogame addictions will seriously damage everything around you: jobs prospects, relationships, your own motivation, your will to learn more about certain topics, your physical fitness, etc.

Cut your losses anons, stop playing. Those MMR points are for nothing.

Potato

I would, but then again, I won't waste my time with a fucking Croatian.

Have a nice day.

>in situations which dont require fast and quick reactions

I can't actually think of a physical sport that requires faster reaction times than esports.

I'm going through the ones I can think of off the top of my head and none of like basketball, tennis, soccer, baseball, hockey, boxing, football/rugby, badminton, table tennis are especially fast. Maybe a motorsport with lots of fast turns and high speeds or some niche sport I can't think of is faster. But out of the mentioned ones they're all pretty sluggish compared to most vidya esports.

lets talk about anime addiction and why i see a fucking picture of it in almost every 4chan post

>>133713317
>videogames stimulate your adrenaline to rush while sitting
I think you've got it backwards, we are getting hyped playing games because we want to win them. We want to win, and that triggers our body to produce adrenalin. You can have this happen in any situation where you are trying to win or the stakes are high. It can happen in chess, poker, sports, etc. Videogames are no different in that regard.

>situations which don't require fast and quick reactions
Have you ever played videogames in your life? Even fucking Tetris requires you to react quickly as the levels get harder. Play games like a sloth and you'll lose every time.

>"programming" your body to silence any aggression when dealing with real-life situations
You're right, Xbox Live is just a fucking bastion of peaceful discussion and backpatting.

Also about the only negative effect video games has on a person is a sedentary lifestyle, which can be fixed by a little personal discipline, which in the USA is a personal decision.

The lenses and screens and software are designed for comfortable eye convergence and has a focal distance of 2 metres. So if you're sitting close to your computer screen for hours. It's relaxing for your eyes to go use the rift for a while.

In the future I think they will change a lot in the interface and content of electronic devices because human brains don't interface with them as straightforward as people think they do.

>>133713985
So that's what your mom has been up to.

What if I only play a game an hour every 2 or 3 days?
