7. Replaces Reality
For some people who become so good at video games; they simply substitute it for life. Bye-bye shitty reality, hello virtual dominance. Video games are a source of fun entertainment to pass the time, but there is a line that needs to be drawn between the game portion and reality. Immersing yourself into the virtual world and focusing all your time and attention on that is not healthy and can cause serious health problems. Games are a temporary fix, not a life sentence. The video game industry does tempt us and keep us hooked. Its up to us to decide that enough is enough and put the controller down. Reality is a lot more fun and rewarding than any game once you accomplish the goals you set out to do.
