Some people are obsessed with computer games and will spend enormous amount of time which could be better spent otherwhere if not for that addiction. I'm talking from my own experience. I can't experiment by living in another world without computer games, may be I would destroy that time in the other fashion or may be I would write some useful code, who knows.
But just blindly dismissing that kind of reasoning is not wise in my opinion. Casinos eat money from victims and they are regulated. Computer games eat time from some victims and time is quite important asset as well.
Of course just like some people can reasonably spend some little money to get some enjoyment in casino, other people can reasonably spend some free time in computer games without compromising on more important activities. But not everyone have iron will and iron grip over himself.
- scotty79 6y ago> which could be better spent otherwhere But realistically would it be better spent? I banned myself from games to write my master thesis. There was some mild improvement in pace of work, but I'm not sure if I should attribute it to not gaming or simply to approaching deadline. On the other hand I watched all 10 seasons of "Friends" during that time. And I didn't even like "Friends" to begin with.
