When I was younger, my parents didn't want me to play video games at all. The little one I played with was sneaking out to play in a shop close to our house. But you will have to pay a certain amount of money to play.

Back in the day, they perceived gaming as a sheer waste of time. Now, I see more sophisticated games that help hone our skills in various ways. You can even leverage games for relaxation.

Tell me, Is playing video games a waste of time?
 
It's absolutely not. Gone are the days where we perceived gaming as a waste of time but now, we have seen so many games enriching our lives. Some of them even enhance our cognitive skills, which is awesome!
 
Playing video games helps me stay out of trouble, and provides entertainment. I enjoy playing games, so it's not a waste of time.
 
I wouldn't say playing video games is a waste of time and have always disliked it when others say that it is. I have found great comfort in playing video games and it has helped a lot with my mental health.

Yes, like I said, some games educate, others inspire creativity or provide stress relief. It's more of choosing games that are in line with what you wanted. The gaming world is diverse.
 
I don't think playing video games are a waste of time. I think they're a good way to distract yourself from the real world at times, especially if you're having a rough day. Plus they help your hand eye coordination too.
