[QUOTE="Reality:1302004"][QUOTE="slag%20is%20not%20slag:1301993"]This is all just my opinion. So, I’ve been thinking about this topic more. Video games are art as far as I’m concerned. It takes creativity to realize and create a world from scratch. I truly believe this. And as far as the criticism goes saying that music, television, movies, etc. are the same thing as video games, i.e. entertainment, I will agree. However, I feel that video games and television in particular are the most abused form of entertainment from the types of entertainment listed in the former sentence. This is my problem with video games in particular. Instead of being used as a form of entertainment, many, many people use it as escapism or avoidance of real life. Certainly, we all need to go to enter vegetable zone now and again and decompress. But, playing video games instead of mowing the lawn, going back to school, creating your own art etc. is neither healthy nor a worthwhile use of time. I love video games. I really do. But horse piss, have I wasted some serious time playing them instead going out and trying to get laid, instead of making music, instead of contributing to the growth and development of my siblings and just living life to the fullest. Opinion based statement incoming, I can think of 100 better things to do right this very second than playing video games. This may be me and just part of my journey as a person. I feel as human beings, we are really selling ourselves short by poorly utilizing the little time we have on the earth playing video games. Free will, blah blah, I know. It’s your choice what you do with your time. Do whatever the fuck you want. But, If you really sit back and look at the grand picture of things when you’re 75 or 80 or whenever the fuck you’re going to die, do you really want to remember all that fucking sweet time you spent playing Fallout 7 or Final Fantasy 69? Or do you want to remember the great time spent with loved ones, making art, accomplishing goals and being the best human you can possibly be? If anything I don’t sit here and criticize video games or entertainment as a whole, I implore you to go out there and live your fucking lives to level 11. My 2 cents. [/QUOTE] Miguided transcendental elitism. One can live their lives with entertainment on the side. And yes, I will be 80 and remember my loved ones, as well as the inspirational stories and developments in Final Fantasy 69. Your argument could be thrown at books, too. Does reading a book count as something that you're above as well? Life is what you make of it. Entertainment is all around is. Video games are one aspect of it. You sound deluded.[/QUOTE]
