Video games are designed to make you hooked and extract as much as they can from you. You are slaves on the world they created, wasting your consciousness away on a virtual world. And the grinding games are the absolute worst, its just the same gameplay over and over.

Basically the game for its users is entertainment, and for its makers is profit. especially if a lot of ads arrive. Are you having a problem with the game? try to play games that make money. for example by uploading it to Youtube, or choosing the gane that is available give away prize

thats actually not true video games are designed to make as much fun as possible as long as possible, yes they are addictive because gamers and developer designed them to be good, you should stay away from them, many people have a realy bad alternative real life, and therefore love spending a lot of time with video games additionally imagine if all urban centeres would requre as much nature and wildlife to go fishing or bike riding? the environment would collapse you are talking trash. regards

Without a doubt a problem, but I do think that society does blow it out of proportion. People claim video games are the reason behind mass shootings, violence, and so on and so forth.
Video games may be a problem to some people, but I would much rather have people addicted to playing games on their computer rather then shooting up heroin, or using other drugs.
It's a problem, though the media and parents blow it out of proportion.

"You are slaves on the world they created, wasting your consciousness away on a virtual world"
Little do you know your entire life is a video game in a virtual world, you just think it`s real. So if you have more fun in another digital world (like vr game) than in real life, are you wasting it? If you enjoy your time doing something, it is never a waste. Seems this kid wasted his time https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/teen-gamer-wins-3-million-in-fortnite-world-cup-/5023619.html I bet he is richer than you will ever be playing video games and having fun doing his hobby AND EVERYONE ON THIS LIST https://www.esportsearnings.com/playersI personally made over 50,000 playing video games, and I would of did it all for free, because I had fun playing them. #notwasted I also learned more from them, than I did any teacher ever. And if you want them to become even more intelligent, let them play in the fairy tales.

It depends on what game you chose. "Free-to-play" games tend to have much micro-transactions that they really are pay-to-win. This is an issue in the gaming industry now where you already paid to own the game but it still got microtransactions in it. As for grinding games, if it's popular enough, you can earn money out of it by selling stuff you've farmed.

I don't think many of us know how to monetize our passion because I have met with people that really like playing video games and other games. We would be enslaved when we treat video games just to please the desired of our mind and heart but if we mean business, we would not be addicted to it but rather we would see the playing of the games as a business.

Well some are treated like real life sports and others can generate revenue. There are plus sides to video games granted I think are just as many downsides too. But that is just technology in general

Then only buy games that won't rip you off continually. If it's free, then you are the product, either you spend your time or you shell out cash bit by bit. Only buy those that have high replay value and is just a one-time pay. It doesn't hurt to unwind every now and then. I mean, I'd prefer sitting in front of a PC rather than risking my life jumping off a plane or climbing a freezing mountain.

Esport is not meant for kids. kids play games for fun. We can list number of people earning money from playing games but the numer of kids ruining their life just because of getting addicted to the game world is in enormous amount.I bet all the gamers who are extensively playing can't make money. Gaming companies have no control over the amount of time players spend on their games. The only solution is that parents should talk to their child about the risk of video games and also limit the time their child plays video games.

I'm always playing video games too but I always do my responsibilities after that. I think it's a huge problem if the person is playing all the time and not being productive. It will make a huge impact on his life he is having this kind of addiction. Gaming has been in existence for long time. There are professional gamers in the gaming industry that make a lot of money from gaming. Here are the list of Richest Pro Gamers in the World as at last year 1.

You can set them as your inspiration and it will motivate yourself to do better but remember that not of all people will go to this kind of faith. Only gifted people can be able to reach this kind of legacy and be rich.

A lot of the victim of the video games are the student aging from 8 year old and above, most of them change lifestyles instead children studying in the school they at the computer shop during the classes is ongoing. Somto avoid this need parents to monitor their child and control to play videos in the right ways. I am not against the technology improvements to get more entertainment but need to use this in the right way.

There were actually a lot of things I learned playing video games. I was able to learn how to be more patience in getting thing that you really want. It made me quite smarter cause I have learned that you should have strategic plans to deal with your problems.
But then again it is very obvious that to every addiction is really indeed a huge problem in the society. To those who wanted to defend that "Video Game Addiction" is not causing problem at all stop being a smarty-pants.

Well, those are one of the misuse of engineering and coding to make kids hook to such products lol. But everything has turned into a filthy business, so can't really blame them I think more than video games, games like pubg are more harmful to the mind than it can appeal to be.
