10 Important Life Lessons Learned From Video Games

Games are time consuming; It requires dedication to play a game all the way through. Games also end. All players are aware of this when starting a game. If someone only plays a game to discover it's ending then they endanger themselves to hours of painstaking misery (especially in RPGs). That isn't to say the ending isn't important, it should provide an opportunity to reflect. Yet the ending shouldn't be the single motivation to play. This allows players to enjoy the journey of the game - which often results in a much more pleasant experience. This concept has been proven to be true for books, movies and life. Don't worry about the ending, enjoy the moment while it lasts.
