    Sigh, that starts to get depressing. Everyone doesnt read the thread and everyone just answers negatively or positively without taking into account my main point.

     

    My main point is:

    Why the majority of people dont play online? Cause they die, they die again and again and again. And dieing inst fun, they simply want to win, and if they cant win they get disapointed and stop playing(really small % tries to improve). But u can always keep them happy in the fake "fun" of single player(and thats where the majority of market is)

    Main point, AI IS COMPLETELY DUMB, ITS ONLY REASON TO EXIST IS TO MAKE IDIOTS FEEL BETTER BY KILLING A GRAPHICALLY HUGE MONSTER BY PRESSING ONE YIFFING BUTON

     

    Its the same think like WOW achievements, get an achievement for doing 5 quests without breaking your spine!!!

    This is simply rigged to make idiots who suck feel better

    And why is it FAKE??

    Because it requires 0 skill, its like pressing a yiffing button in your pc and getting a reward every x time saying how skillful player you are

     

     

    And another reason this is BAD, is because those single player idiots came online because games start to move online AND DEMAND YIFFING BALANCE OR "COOL" CHANGES HAVING NO IDEA THE CONCEQUENCES IN THE GAMEPLAY, AND THEY JUST WANT CHANGES SO THEY CAN "WIN" SINCE THEY CANT NOW...

     

    BRING ME A FUCKING DEATH NOTE!!

    This thread needs to be locked and purged. It's farily obvious why, too. This adds nothing to any sort of marginally intelligent discussion about gaming and is simply going to become a trollfest/flamewar. I don't like 'backseat moderating' but, seriously, a better job needs to be done to remove threads like this, threads that aren't in any real way well-written or designed to foster discussion.

    Due note that the initial post could foster some discussion, and it has, but the note about seeing post 62 (the post I am quoting) before commenting demonstrates my point. It's sad, it's really sad.

    (1)TL:DR must be your way of saying that thinking hurts. Then again, this may explain why it looks like you responded to the post without using your brain.
    (2) It's not about community, is it? You just have nothing better to do.

    The reason i edited the initial post with that is because more tha half of posters either dont read the main topic or just dont get it and come immidiately to say why gaming is not wrong or why gaming is wrong. But very few posts talk about my main point AND NOT about random stuff like addiction etc...

    This my point of view. I've heard of  the upsides and the downsides of gaming from many of my friends,relatives and some strangers but for a game to be either considered bad or good, it all depends on the society's benefit from it in today's world. I look for certain video games that would help improve certain functions of the brain or give me knowledge on how to do things in real life. And if i wanted to relax my mind a bit, i would play mostly social or laid back games. 


     


    Most people out there and I'm talking about the ones you'll never SEE as a gamer have found ways to relax their brain, not just by doing RL "normal" stuff but by actually playing games. it doesn't have to be mmorpg. Just a simple card game is enough. Remember! gaming is neither bad nor good, it's the person behind the game that would either benefit from it or not.


     


    I understand that there are people that say the game is bad but they are STILL playing it. Also there are people who say the game is good and in the future, they hardly play it or stop playing because there is not enough challenge to keep them playing. When players loose too much, they say bad things and take a timeout for a bit or immediately try again. I mean, they don't like being "under the foot" of players from the opposite side, including me, and because of my mindset i choose NOT to give up and keep climbing till i reach the Top, and i did. This type of thinking is found in almost all people, but that's how you'll know if your friend or allied player is like you or a "laid-back" type who just accept defeat. 


     


    The result of gaming can either improve your real life or damage it depending on how you play, what game you choose, your level of commitment, the players assigned to the game, the society you're in, your financial income, the weather environment, social skills, typing skills, family background etc.


     


    There is no fixed positive or negative in gaming.
