Reply to comment by [deleted] in Survey on 12,000 secondary school-aged students (12-18Y) shows that although many adolescents are spending considerable time gaming (at least 3.5hours/day),it is not having a negative impact on the wellbeing and 44% of ‘heavy’ gamers reported higher wellbeing than those who play less or don’t play by giuliomagnifico

Not really, gaming is becoming incredibly harmful to society as the industry slowly merges with gambling.

Heavy gamers are addicts, they forgo personal hygiene and basic human responsibilities to get just one more hit if dopamine.

People who need to escape.... Escape via video games.

If it weren't video games it would be alcohol, over-working, shopping, reading, or a thousand other ways people choose to disconnect with whatever is happening in their life.
