We all have our thing. Some people do makeup, some read, and some play video games. Whether if it’s your way to connect with friends, cope with life, or just your way to enjoy your free time, there is nothing wrong with sitting down and immersing yourself into a world created by storytellers and designers with a character you may or may not have created. Video games were my way to escape from the real world as a kid, and guess what: it still is. So no matter what your thing is, the concern shouldn’t be that you’re doing it, it should be how often you do it and how to regulate it so it doesn’t become an addiction.
