It is a mindless activity. It only provides you with flashy colors and an instant gratification "you win" screen. If you want story and art, watch anime or read books. If you want to be rewarded for your mastery of mechanics, choose a bazillion other hobbies like lifting weights, playing an instrument, programming, etc. I felt so much better after giving up playing games beginning of this year. I have like 10xx hours in csgo. I don't have an excuse to duel boot shitty windows OS either.
Playing games just makes you manchild nerd thats only accomplishments are playing older obscurer games, beating games at higher diffuculty, or having a high rank in a multiplayer game. I'm not saying you have to chase thots. You can be a smart nerd that knows philosophy, science, and has useful skills.
Also, the "gaming community" has become cancer, screeching at each other for being SJWs or neo-nazis and complaining about the race and gender of protagonists.
>I'm not saying you have to chase thots. You can be a smart nerd that knows philosophy, science, and has useful skills. You're speaking almost authoritatively lmao what a cunt. I'm gonna bing bang wahoo for the rest of the night without an ounce of guilt.

I have 1100 hours in Europa Universalis 4. And worse than that, it's all single player and 80% is playing as the same country over and over again. Why am I like this? I tried to uninstall it one time, because it grossed me out, but that didn't last for long. I really have wasted my youth on video games. Thinking about all the things I could have done instead is really sad.
Okay bud, can you do us a favor and leave the site as well while you're at it since you're preaching how good your life is without vidya? It'd be better for both parties if you did, let's be honest

this is because games are the most part a cancer medium thats designed as virtual skinner boxes
but dont write off the medium entirely, there are alot of great works of art, and an underground community working to push things into a better light. play more FREEWARE, and ditch this aaa shit that is only there to get you addicted and make money

watching t.v is mindless watching OR playing sports is mindless going to the gym is mindless listening to music is mindless
basically the vast majority of what we do including our jobs is in fact just mindless grind.

>I have like 10xx hours in csgo My favorite part of Jow Forums is when failed normies come here and try to tell people that something is a worthless endeavor because of their own short-comings as a human being. Video games aren't the problem; you're a fuck up. The reason you even made this thread isn't to convince others to quit, it's to try and get others to rationalize your way of thinking so that you can convince yourself that you're right and the hobby is the problem and that you're not a fuck up.

Seems kind of ironic you call people who play video games man children and recommend them to go watch chinese cartoons instead but fair enough man, who am I to judge
