Yea, no. It surely has some positive, just like pretty much anything. But if you look at it as something you do instead of something else, you start accumulating a lot of negatives.

There's no way any fine motor skill is somehow more developed than, say, playing almost any sport, that involves more than just two hands, and a similar thing can be said as far as teamwork and resilence goes.

On the fantasy side you have to compete with reading or, more broadly, studying.

It probably wins against binge watching b-rated tv series or idlessly watching TV, but if you get the wrong tytle you won't bring home that much value. (Say you are stuck playing COD on a loop).

I think an healthy varied diet of activities and stimuli is still the way for getting the best out of life.

I know I guy that put Overwatch among his experiences. It was for an IT position and he contextualyzed it as some kind of acquired soft skill.

Is it depressing if you had fun?

I love my time on earth and I think it's wild that we can experience the intricacies of a realtime mind-battle with hundred of thousands of fellow humans around the world. #noregrets

Now, World of Warcraft... 🤮

I quit League some half a year ago after 10 years of playing. I can see now how impossible it seems to play that consistently when you just consume different games rather than having a single title.

It's a completely different experience.

As a side note, what's up with all the people saying "I played a game", just say what game it is, we are all nerds in here.

No one dreams about the guy they have to apologize for after you met them

Have you ever been on planet earth? That's sadly false in many instances.

1 - they are dog people. They probably married just because the dogs liked each others.

2 - it's a cartoon.

3 - it's just a fucking depiction of two people randomly meeting, it's implied that they hit it off stellarly and, yes, people do MAD CRAZY things such as... marrying a person they are in love with.

4 - bestiality.

Not the point here. Using it in a commercial environment for free was a violation of the terms, now it's not anymore.

Just put a sticker on top of it that reads "Fuck Amazon" and you can do it guilt free.

And that's fine!

Are you into speedrunning by any chance?

Yes something like the first thing popping in your mind when it comes to being blissfully unaware of the struggle of racism being tying together a black partner and fried chicken.

As far as I recall it's about blatantly "white" tweets, to underly how clueless and detached from reality they are.

But it may have warped into the stratosphere as of these days...
