Good good goy, search for Jow Forums and join! At least we can talk shit in the coc chat about stuff

Reflexes and timing. This one time I had spent a bunch of time playing Heroes & Generals on steam and then had to catch a train to class, and I jumped down the stairwell, took my bag off and held it in front of me as I jumped through the doors of the train right before they closed.

I just want to secure an existence for my clan and a future for my clan mates
Yea there are, video games allows you to view, and to play with concepts that are extremely rare in real life, with proper video games they can be used for accelerated learning. PROPER, which means not for most popular titles, and neither for most "educational" titles.
But you know the gist what I am talking about, gmod and its constructions, minecraft and its weird engines and constructions as well. There are experimental games like trouble in terrorist town (a modern take to that would be Deceit on steam, for free I think) Some of these games can teach you very rare skills that are useful in real life, but they are like 2% of the whole library of games.
stationeers perhaps as well on steam. Though I have to admit, I havent played frequently at all lately. Only metro, and will probably play cyberpunk 2077 as well, as I love roguelikes too. I can only speculate but I really love roguelikes. They are the best. Multiplayer games with people can make people more competitive, but there is no direct link to real life competitiveness since real life is so dull. If you were to actually model games a bit more to be like real life, and to absurd examples, with explanations (like deception)
people are trust in these worlds that while they may be novel, and fun, are kinda irrelevant to real life. If you wanted to you could use the crack cocaine like addiction of video games and design actually malicious teaching games, it would give your population a nice boost in scumbagginess is business for example. But the data for that doesnt exist. There is also zero science on it, You would have to start completely new departments. And the gamers would revolt! Oh no you touched their video games and made them so that they are better at competeing with other nations...oh nooooo! Le gang weed gang
I do not believe that there is anything wrong with videogames necessarily. They can really help you flex your mental muscles, can engender healthy competitivness, and can be a useful outlet for stress and aggression.
The catch is, they're a time sink. While games do have some benefits, they do not provide tangible rewards in the same that having hobbies and doing work does. When playing games it is essential to balance your time because especially modern games try to occupy as much of your time as possible with busy work. Grinding, farming, etc. Spending hours, days, and weeks looking or saving for an item. Stuff like that. That time could be better spent, to say the least. I've wasted weeks of my life in various games and have very little to show for it, not even meaningful memories. That is the real danger.
As long as you don't let them consume you, however, they can be fun and harmless. Just be wary and be deliberate about the amount of time you spend on them.
also, more than a line is too much for most Murricans

I don’t have to deal with OP. So there’s that.
Luke Lee
Oh come on, I am not that bad. I’m not even Muslim.
Hudson Jackson
heh, I got that feeling as well, I often just quit before when I was playing games when I found video games to be tedious in the way of grinding. I got a trainer and just gave myself godmode, or grindable gold to get past that so I could see the progression of the game. Often I learned of the game mechanic from another game and got bored halfway through. Eventually all the games were similar and nothing novel was to be found, good for us then that we found gamergate! Another real life mechanic to game and to exploit.
But growing up and understanding more of the world,I can see how games like eve online are so great for some people.
but what most games lack is accelerated learning. If a game mechanic is similar to a formula of some sort that you encounter in real life, and it puts the dopamine towards mastering it, then you will understand that formula in real life earlier. Easier. But you could also be put into more rare circumstances of all sort to get a bigger slice of life so to speak. That is the appeal of video games, you can be put into a diverse amount of worlds, in little time, for almost no cost.
If all of these games were managed well, and the world focused on business competition, nearly all govs would reign in all gaming companies to focus more on these games, and remove grind. Optimal learning, fast learning, broad range of experience. Those would be nice goals. And the kids would seek them out by their own and be addicted on their own. But its such a stupid theory, and so lose that there is zero guarantee that it would work.

Imagine seething because of a text post keep roasties then fag
You realizing you been brainwashed by feminists and Jow Forums finding lolis cute is worse than murder and about to accept the facts lolis are God's creation
Distract yourself from the unnatural urges by grinding gold and upgrading your base in clash of clans
Nolan Murphy
>cute i dont want to get in to the territory where the line of finding lil girls cute which is normal and sexual attraction i dont want to blur that line maybe its just my anxiety making me overthink it and stress myself out
Dominic Flores
I promised my self no ore honking but heres one for (You)
Start your kids off on older games. Get a SNES emulator or something and let them play Chrono Trigger or that farm game or any of they other 10000 games that started before this PC shit. You will silently red pill them. They'll see that you don't need a nignog in a game for it to be fun and games with them will always feel a little awkward.

I’m going to become Amish but with the early 2000s instead of the 1800s

This thread took a weird turn
Parker Thompson
if there werent more productive thingd to do id say yes and even then they are a pretty good form of media as long as youre playing the older shit and the classics. not cod and csgo like some dumb bitch who claiked to be a gamer said she played. what a retard.
Tyler Murphy
/tv/ was right, Jow Forums is a pedo board
Ian Evans
Being sexually conscious of and having romantic feelings for children is a good trait in a man. You aren't going to break the law just because you are developing a new sexual consciousness.
Blake Brown
No.
As a teacher I see the addictive nature of video games first hand.
It's dangerous and it stagnates learning growth.
Ryder Lee
Its not, its just a false flag kike shill
Carter Bailey
yeah... I never realized it until watching British parliament debates... most people are pedos
Lincoln Martinez
You will be cleansed.
Easton Ortiz
Video games are good for children Video games teach history (ww2 fps), science (sci-fi). Expose people to a lot of tropes and cliches that are interesting as children Develop basic problem solving skills
The problem with video games if you basically grow out of them by age 15-20 if you start playing as a child. For adults they become a source of addiction that stops us from accomplishing goals irl like getting married.
Ethan Brown
If it was invented after 1954... chances are its the devil.

I've recently replayed Knights of the old republic 2 and suddenly realized how much it has fucked me in the head back in the day (2005-6). Bao-Dur, an autistic engineer who literally talks less than droids, became my subconscious role model, and its "influence" system has taught me to jump around people and be extra nice to be on their good side. Come to think of it a lot of WRPGs of the time had similar "influence" systems for party members.
Jesus fucking Christ, it took years to reject both of these mindsets.
