A
fun activity that has been around for a very long
time that is encompasses a very large audience and has many different genres.
So many people
like them because instead of just watching some generic named
hero do something that you’ve seen a thousand times. You get to be the
hero, you make decisions, you progress the story, this then gives opportunity to so many things. Because now you can do these amazing acts and feel power and satisfaction.
Not to mention its an incredibly lucrative business opportunity, look at companies
like Ubisoft and Bethesda, they are multi billion dollar companies and they made so much
money just from making video games
This opportunity for creativity gives developers a lot of options and because they can include so much and because theres so many things they can do developers can add there own charm, There own ideas
But some people don’
t get video games, they don’t understand what they are and only look at the surface and make borderline
retarded connections. This lead to video games also being a scapegoat, people (more specifically soccer moms) have blamed so many things on this
fun activity that its scared some people away from this genre of entertainment.
Karen : Video games cause violence
Doom fan: A lot of studies have said they don't, its just a
stupid false scapegoat, I play a super violent game called
doom and you don't see me ripping peoples heads off.
