Everyone has room for a little entertainment in their life. I don't think it's healthy or even possible to do productive creative work during all your waking hours.
Besides, gaming offers a way to escape from reality, which for some people is essential therapy.
- shostack 11y agoI agree that some release is healthy, but it is hard to avoid mentally tallying all the hours I've spent gaming in my life and wonder what more value I could have created during that time if I had spent it on something productive... I'm sure I beat myself up over it too much, but it definitely becomes harder to ignore as I get older.
