Some older people think that video games will "turn your brain to mush". But if they took a moment to play, they would see the puzzles that took an hour to finish. Or games that take place hundreds of years ago, and you either learn something or you wonder how accurate the game is and look it up.
Some people think that games will make you violent. The truth is that those violent games help me deal towards your annoying ass and not beat you. Those games are stress relievers for some of us who don't want to go to jail for trying to pull of a FATALITY.
Some people will look at you weird if you just cry out of nowhere. And some games give you endings, happy or sad, that release those bottled up tears that you can't find a good excuse to let it out.
Some people think you're waisting your life playing video games. But many people make money off of playing them, reviewing them, previewing them, making them and sometimes recording gameplay.
For those who play to enjoy them, they are an escape for those who don't want to deal with their problems for just a few hours.
And, for some people, it gives someone a reason to live. When you feel like there is nothing to live for, sometimes video games keep someone alive. You gotta live for that next extension pack, that sequel, that spin-off.
Don't tell someone they are waisting their life with video games. Because even if they are waisting their life, they still have 10 more lives to hold them steady before they level up.
