This may be truth but I down voted because addiction and gaming were thrown into the same pot. You have to differentiate this topics a little… It’s the same like: car drivers don’t give a crap about the environment and drive like a*holes or people interested in football are drunken hooligans…
Too much of something is literally almost bad for a person.
Depends on the game. Deep Rock Galactic is a good example of a more pro-social game, in the fps genre no less.
Assuming you have not reached the level of actual addiction anyway. Anything enjoyable, even things like sweets or gambling, can potentially become addictive. That’s a whole different consideration.
I'd say Honkai Star Rail is the most commute-friendly one, since it's based on turn-based battles. Genshin is definitely not the best one for that. Exploring the open world and doing quests take a long, long time. Honkai Impact 3rd has short missions too but it's action oriented.
Chiming in as a parent. My kids are MOST social when playing video games. They hop online with their friends and they chat and laugh and bullshit with each other.
The case against video games was created by people who think staring at the TV until they fall asleep is a good night.
Yes! studies have found that increased hours of gameplay can be associated with higher feelings of loneliness and anxiety, potentially indicating a substitution of social interactions with gaming
I really think Genshin is awful on mobile. Even with a high end phone I had extremely bad performance. I haven’t played Honkai so can’t say anything about that.
To be fair I wouldn’t recommend Genshin at all, I’ve been playing since launch and there’s a lot of FOMO, so just by starting now you already missed many things that will never return (like weapons, events, etc).
I really liked the Nier Reincarnation game and played full f2p. The story telling and the soundtrack is beautiful. The game will be closing in the next months though, which is really sad. :(
