killamch89 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 We all know that gaming helps with things like coordination skills along with problem-solving and helps us to take our minds of our issues in real life. However, as with everything in life, there's always a downside to gaming. What do you think are the negative effects of gaming and tell us how they could be minimized or completely resolved?

The Blackangel Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Stress levels. I know this isn’t everyone, but it is a large number of gamers. Trying to obtain something, and repeatedly failing at whatever part in obtaining said desire. Anger and frustration starts to rise, thus inducing an elevated stress level. I know I have a major problem with video game rage. It’s part of the reason I stick to one player game mostly, and have entirely quit playing other games. Because I’m often just not a good choice as a gaming partner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 If your game is stressing you out, move on to another. The whole purpose is to enjoy and entertain, not succumb into a forced repetitive cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Burnount that happens from churning. Some games also get in your head storywise and manipulate the hell out of you. Which can be bad for the mental health long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Video games can negatively affect the brain, memory, and vision. They can cause stress, anxiety, and even isolation if the addiction gets severe enough. Video games can even kill brain cells and interrupt a person's sleep. How do video games affect the brain? You tell me LOL One time there was a man named Andrew. Andrew was a respectable member of society. However one day Andrew played a popular video game named ''Animal Crossing.'' 2 weeks went by and no one, not even himself, knew what he had become. Until one day he saw a minority walking down the street, and the kill-switch within his brain activated. Andrew shot the minority and later died in a shootout with police. If anyone had known, Andrew could've been saved. Video Games. Not even once Reality vs Adventure and killamch89 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like any addiction. As for this Animal Crossing story, do you have proof of that, or are you just trolling us? And even so, that really isn't proof, it's just anecdotal.

If you said Fifa, totally understandable as I've seen some of best rage moments when people are losing on Fifa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Crossing inciting rage is like saying watching Blues Clues incites rage ( actually that grown ass man acting like a complete retard does get the blood boiling...).

skyfire Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 You never know, strange things are already going on over the world. People are marrying their own self, breaking up their own self. Cheating their own self type of news coming out on TV. You never know what could lead to rage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I’ve never played Animal Crossing, and what the fuck is blues clues? Is it like the backwards message shit that was supposed to be in metal in the 80’s? Except this is in blues music instead of metal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
