Using this to excuse my 6+ hour Cities Skylines binge on a Sunday.
- fyfy18 7y agoHave there been any studies on the effects of stress by playing computer games? Maybe it's the type of games I play, but I often find I feel more stressed after playing computer games.
- winrid 7y agoI assume it's not far from work. I used to only play CSGO if I drank wine to help the stress. Usually a small glass every other night or so. I ended up trying all the wine in one rack at Safeway over a year... +1 on it being the type of game.
- pete762 7y agoYes, it's basically congruent with what the BBC article mentions. Being immersed into a video game leads to less memory formation of what happened beforehand. This can be used in trauma prevention etc.: https://www.nature.com/articles/mp201723 https://www.nature.com/articles/mp201723
