because we are losers who chase rapid doses of dopamine while not actually struggling for it.

No physical exertion or social interaction/embarassment.

Because even the hardest games arent very taxing

>one you can do at the comfort of home, the other can not
gee i wonder why

Slower progression, lower dopamine, and pain/exhaustion is involved

vidya takes away most of the frustrating parts of the process and gives you lots of immediate feedback when you're making progress. you're being trained to have shorter and shorter attention spans, which will only make real shit harder and harder to accomplish.

>video game
>gives you good boy points and other carefully designed dopamine hits when doing shit you're supposed to

>real life
>you will not actually be cognizant of progress until you've put months into it

If only everything in life gave you a pump

Any video game is still going to be very narrow in terms of what you can achieve, with clear pass/fail conditions making it easier to focus on, complete and get a sense of closure from than the messy, open endedness of real life pursuits

Because games are evil Satanic tools conceived by the blasphemous Juden worshippers to ruin good God-fearing Christians, the sole purpose of which is to cast an illusion of fulfillment over the 'gamers' and distort their reality and ultimately siphon the joys of what make a man great from the player's soul, and then when he does not play games this gamer will be a shambling husk of mortality that is devoid of reason or logic and cannot think outside of or beyond his only ambition to get back to playing his games, and so he will be curt, discourteous, and socially inept in public, his entire meaning of life compromised by the illusory promise of fulfillment, happiness, and escape found upon the television, within the comfort and safety of his profanely crafted game space, which he has been deceived one thousand times over to believe that that is a superior alternative to living a life of purpose. Games are tools to make supplicate the masses, who will comply and serve those who wish to live a great life at the expense of the brotherhood of man, and therefore the enemies of mankind.
Beware, gamers - the Devil comes in disguise as your greatest ally and closest friend, but ultimately he is a vampire, for he cannot cross the threshold of your heart, mind, and soul if you do not invite him in. Reject him. Reject him and the evil Juden that create these monstrosities of gluttony in their endless avarice and life will offer far greater rewards to you for what risks you take, should you weather and withstand your trials in the face of evil.
