another question for my studies (trying to think up a research topic i might be interested in)

this is a simple one, but is a big topic at times,

The poll is misleading - "Yes" appears to mean "waste of time", but does it for sure? I think gaming is okay, but like everything else, moderation is the key.

my argument has always been video games have more interaction and there for develop more skills that staring mindlessly at a screen, when you can stare mindlessly at a screen and kill a dragon

Only if you over do it just like everything else in life. 🤔

a profound waste of time imo, but, I guess if you like what you're doing it isn't a waste

The question of games is very broad.

If you refer to video games - IT ALL DEPENDS on the type of video games

@deonboy89: nah, I'm just precise

There are many types of games pre-electronic era...Plus if people don't think about what they say - they will answer anything because of what they see others post and not independently look into the issue

well i also know that people will more likely answer a quick simple question over something needlessly complex,

@deonboy89: when a question is vague

....and then in the bottom text gives further information then that's where the added complexity is first observed - so hence

If you want an easy breezy answer don't give more info to it

The real question is, why does everything we do in our lives have to be physically productive? Isn't there a place for relaxation or enjoyment?

No. For me it's just like any leisurely activity, like watching movies or reading.. its how I unwind.

No, not at all, but it depends on the game.

Life is a waste of time. Dota isn't
