  • Up at 5:30 even at weekend so there ain't a lot to do for 3 hours or so at weekends - could do a lot of stuff in those 3 hours a day (do a degree, do post grad, do a professional qualification, learn Visual Basic, become a 2nd degree instructor in Kung fu) hmmmm done all that - I just wanna play games and relax until the other half kicks me off the Xbox.

  • Na case if I want something...that's what I go get. Right now, and for the past year, I've been a couch potato. Coming soon I'll be a certified divemaster and be getting /in shape for helping instructors teach scuba. It's all a matter of personal perspective and what's important to you.

  • I would end up doing worse, as it is literally the only alone time I get and it relieves stress.

    • Productive? Maybe. Better? No. I have a job I enjoy that pays well, I workout and eat healthy and I do something with friends every once in a while. Everyone has their hobby, games are mine.

    • Eh, I go to uni, I go out like every weekend, I need gaming because it's my peaceful alone time which I very much enjoy/need. I don't think my life would be vastly different with or without it.

      • Honestly yes. I play video games because I'm a nihilistic antisocial punk with no drive to better myself or complete actual life goals. If I stop playing video games I might actuality have to face reality and the thought of that legitimately scares me.

      • I do the max with physical stuff already. And still play hella games. But nothing would improve. I'd find another excuse to not do my homework (:

      • No. But it would be if I quit Destiny I think I'm going to. Kinda sad. Great game, but Bungie (my childhood heroes) fûck you every turn. Now the grind of infusion is here. I can't keep doing this

        • I'm athletic and active during the day and only play at night. My girl is also a gamer so I enjoy the awesomeness of both worlds on that front :-)

        • I've grown up around video games, and I've been gone serving in the military for months/years a time without them. Life goes on. Games are a hobby, entertainment, an escape - not unlike reading a book, watching TV/movie, or playing a sport (including all sports - motorsports, etc...). This question could be asked the same for any of those, and my response would be - unequivocally - No, my life would not be better. The key is balance, as in all things in life.

          • Nope. Everyone needs a way to destress and this is mine. Favorite hobby besides reading. I can fit in exercise, studying, work and family. It's all about finesse baby!

            • I would probably be a raging alcoholic cause I would have so much more money. Game in is a pretty expensive hobby. Keeps me out of trouble

              • video games arent really a problem, the thing is when it becomes an addiction.
