Are videogames the greatest blight on modern youth? I wish I could stop all these teenagers from destroying their lives with that shit, where I failed some should succeed
Living in a first world country of a free world
What else can I do then?
I'm in a similar situation. It's not all lost though, I'm trying to work on the things I still have control over.
Fucking go outside and do something then if you feel like a low life piece of shit, complaining to a chinese image board isn't gonna do shit, do something or don't you have legs cunt.
fuck no, I love video games
you're just a failure, video games have nothing to do with it
you could do something much more useful then posting your shitty rant and crying here.
people are lazy fucks with or without video games and there is nothing wrong in that.
I feel the same though, i'm from a shit country. I always wanted to travel the globe. Though thats financially crippling and short of joining the French Foreign Legion i don't think i'll be able too anytime soon. Maybe when i'm an oldfuck. never late to start eh?
>its another "Doing things you enjoy is wrong" thread
>blame other things for your own failures
Nice try, faggot. If there were no games, you'd blame TV, the internet, comics, books, alcohol, pills, pussy, skateboarding, etc.
>Are videogames the greatest blight on modern youth?
Are you implying that people would do something "constructive" instead if there were no videogames/TV/"pointless culture"? That is terribly stupid.
That's right OP, at the ripe old age of 12 you are TOO OLD to bother changing your ways! Your ONLY SOLACE is to seek approval on an anonymous image board!
Don't forget to regret not having started anything every 3 years for the rest of your life!
You think that before video games, people spent all their time advancing the frontiers of humabities' knowledge?
>waste life
Have you been playing games for 85 years? There was some woman that finally got her shit together and went back to college when she was like 105, stop being a little bitch and start living as the person you wish you were.
Just because you enjoy something doesn't mean that its not detrimental to you. Fat fucks enjoy food even though its detrimental to their health.
>do nothing
>wallow in self pity
>cry about it
>repeat infinitely until dead
"Time you enjoyed wasting was not wasted" - Mark Twain
>could've learned all this useless shit
So what? I've got two degrees and I still feel playing video games is the most fulfilling thing I do.
There is a difference between actively ruining your life with drugs or junk food and saying "I like to play video games".
Besides OP's problem clearly isnt video games, he just wants to blame them and make others feel bad for daring to like them.
>it's yet another "I'm a failure because of video games. What do you mean I play video games because I'm a failure?" thread
The problem isn't video games, it's just escapism in general. I've wasted my life playing games just because I can't deal with the effort and hardship it takes to advance in life and become truly great at something. If it wasn't games I would have latched onto something else that provides a good feeling relatively cheaply. Drugs, alcoholism, whatever else. The problem is me, not the games.
It really doesn't matter what you do as long as you're enjoying it, if you think that video games are the main reason blocking your happiness and progress then just quit them and work on that.
If you think you're wasting your life playing video games and yet you can't quit them just buy an exit bag.
Don't you guys just love it?
The sweet sweet decadence, everything at your disposal, you can do so much and you just decide to do whatever feels good, no worries, play some games, spend some money, eat some food, get a prostitute if you want to, or just ERP with other degenerates.
Being born into money is amazing.
I play video game all day long until my parent kick me out and I was forced to survive
It's been 5 years and I haven't touch a video game since
I browse Sup Forums all days long instead fuck this place holy shit

It's called relaxing you shit, unless you're one of those "having fun is for casuals" people
Or you could do all that and also play games
Is not games fault that you are an addict
Helping people is gay dude
Video games are fucking rad though
Easy decision
MODERATION, faggot
learn to manage your time effectively
I have 2 jobs and go to college full-time - I still play videogames
I'm still productive and I don't give a fuck
YOU FILTHY CASUAL! THIS IS Sup Forums ! YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE FUN IN HERE
AROUND Sup Forums , NEVER FUN !
Playing video games is better than jerking off
>wanting to be a pat of the workforce, help people, travel the world, or build shit.
why?
>perfect your physical form
this is one i can agree with, i always lift before sitting down and playing vidya rest of the day
pff
fuck off
What would be the point of that, though? Who are you trying to impress with all that useless knowledge?
ITT: People who can't organize their life for shit
the only thing I wish to do is what I can do only in video games
>tfw cant join the military because health problems
