"The Science Behind RNG: it's gambling RNG and luck in games is essentially gambling, and it is very addictive. For every low there is a high, a big epic moment, and that is what players want. From getting that impossible winning draw to getting a perfect run, players keep playing in order to get that rush. The thought of getting that rush, that one win, is what keeps people playing and it's what causes gambling addictions. Gambling is very similar to addictive drugs when it comes to what it does to our brains. A human has a reward system in their brain that releases a chemical called dopamine. source: https://www.gameskinny.com/pvp33/why-do-gamers-like-rng-based-games

  • You're so right. A crack cocaine addiction is the exact same thing as playing a video game. It's called a generality for a reason you clown. The word "addiction" is a word like "sports" or "religion." There are many DIFFERENT KINDS of them.

    Addiction means Addiction. The word only has so many meanings. Being addicted to any drug is still being addicted. No matter what drug it is, an addiction is an addiction. Being addicted to sports is the same thing as being addicted to narcotics. Just that the [i]end results[/i] of that addiction are different. Same with being addicted to Destiny 2 :V Gotta' kick the habit!
