Why game addict = no life?

[Ryoji]

Eh... I have no life. So I fill that void by playing video games. That simple. Hell I even admit it to people too but usually in a jokingly manner. I honestly don't care what some incompetent buffoon over the Internet tells/calls me. I play games to have fun and to take myself out of reality. Because in all honesty, reality just sucks. The only time i'm ever happy is when i'm playing games, so why is that so wrong?

How does that make me any less of a person than you? I'm not going to go outside where I could get shot, raped, etc. I'd rather stay inside and enjoy a nice video game. Besides, these kinds of things boost your creativity (I don't have any so it doesn't affect me). I mean yeah, playing 24/7 with no sleep doing nothing but grinding or paying out your ass for stupid virtual items, is a little pathetic. To each their own.

Yeah I agree with you pretty much 100%

I have a "life" personally(job, college, friends I hang out with) but that doesn't make people who play games all day inhuman or less human than myself. The one thing I hate the most is when someone says "those people aren't real friends"...Pretty much unless people on games are robots, they are real, and if you guys are friends than it's a real friendship.

There's nothing wrong with playing games all the time, as long as it's what you want to do with your life and you're having fun.
