>tfw too intelligent to play action games

They're talking about being able to find your way via landmarks instead of a dot on your HUD. Shrinkage occurs because of games where you aren't given the opportunity to find your own way through a map.

What game makes you remember everything perfectly but when someone asks for directions you don't know the street name but you can remember the color of every house on the street with the house with 2 dogs always barking in the window? Would that be Morrowind?

>>387938640
so Breath of the Wild expanded my brain... Sonybros on suicide watch

>>387938640
Why would you need to use landmarks anyway, CoD maps aren't even big. If using a map makes you dumb then I guess people have been getting dumb since cartography was invented.

>playing different games affects the brain differently
NO SHIT?

>>387937369
Is there a pseudo study on people who play RTS games?

>>387939110
Breath of the wild has landmarks though.

>>387938640
So Morrowind really is better than Skyrim?
Hmmm.........

>First person games remove your ability to see anything that isn't directly in front of you
>Players have less spacial awareness
>Third person games show you everything around your character
>Players have higher spacial awareness
Wow, what a concept

>>387939568
Navigation, not awareness.

what about people who vape while gaming

>>387939678
How can you navigate if you're not aware?

What do Fighting games do?

Exactly, did you read the article? If you have to use your brain to go somewhere, it expands your hippocampus. If you follow a dot on your map to go somewhere, it makes it smaller.

So basically don't look at the minimap and action games will be beneficial to you.

>Clearly we have been getting dumber every century

People will really believe any bullshit you post on the internet won't they? It isn't better direction systems making you fuck nuggets so stupid, it's your inability to do any kind of research yourself rather than being spoon fed information with out ever considering it's source or accuracy.

Is /v/ 100% burger land now or what? The autism levels are reaching some next level stupidity.

What they mean by action games is just their normie slang for open-world games with minimap. They explain that with the GPS in games, people turn into brainlets.

Og doom makes you stupid?

>>387939093
Operation Flashpoint cwc

>>387943081
No, because OG Doom doesn't have a dot on your HUD that points to your objective at all times.

Many people lived without this part of the brain.

>Studies showed that both male and females aged 18-25 proved that the lonelier they are in life, the more porn they watched drastically increased

>among the selected surveyed, those without friends or were antisocial watched the most porn followed second by those who did not have a job and school to attend to

>>387943897
they do cherry pick their participants in these surveys. So I wouldn't take these findings as concrete proof

>>387943897
What sucks is the you fall deeper into your anisocial hole because all people will think of you is a porn addict. That all you do is watch porn and nothing else.
