    Gaming has been a part of my life ever since childhood. It was a crucial driver in keeping me free from sadness and negativity. In times of stress, gaming was the reliver of my soul. In times of darkness, gaming was the light. I do however, understand the negative consequences too much gaming can have. I'm proud to say that I've managed to keep an equilibrium between gaming and other responsibilities of life. both without seeping into each other. I have also evolved in terms of soft skills like. sharp attention, quick response rates, and much more.

    I was generally not a very social person. But Gaming helped me overcome that. I now have lots of friends and am much more social and happy.

    Overall, I would say Gaming can have a positive effect on people's lives if they are responsible enough to not let it cause negligence in other parts of your life.

    Gaming has seriously impacted my life, but not in the way you might expect. It's not just about mindlessly playing games and losing myself in virtual worlds (although let's be real, that's part of the appeal). No, gaming on a laptop has helped me to evolve in ways I never thought possible.


    First off, my problem-solving skills have reached legendary levels (a little exaggerated tho) thanks to all the puzzles (most of the games I played) and challenges I've faced in games. I mean, who needs a Rubik's Cube when you've got Portal or The Witness? And don't even get me started on hand-eye coordination. I'm like a ninja with a mouse and keyboard now. Although I'm still getting dizzy, especially when playing on a bigger screen 😁


    But it's not just about the skills I've acquired. Gaming has also opened up a whole world of social connections for me not a lot but still a connection, right? Whether it's joining a guild or chatting with my friends back in the Philippines, I've met some fantastic people through gaming.


    And let's not forget about the tech side of things. Gaming on a laptop has forced me to stay up-to-date with the latest computer hardware and technology, which has definitely come in handy, especially on the job I'm currently doing.


    So yeah, gaming has definitely impacted my life in some unexpected ways. Who knew that sitting in front of a screen for hours on end could actually be good for you?

    Electronic games play a prominent and influential role on young people in terms of occupying their free time, satisfying their aspirations, and meeting their needs. Electronic games also leave a positive and constructive impact in terms of acquiring new knowledge, refining their skills, and imparting positive values and attitudes that are reflected in their daily behaviors and practices, as well as their recreational role and increasing spaces for entertainment, pleasure, joy, and vitality.

    @QueenTomato I work in a heavy stress environment and gaming has become my stress reliever. I play during my free time to release all those stress. I became a sociable person and meet new friends from around the world! Gaming also helped me improve my critical thinking and strategies.

    @QueenTomato Hello,

    I am not a heavy gamer but still I will call myself a gamer, since 5 years old I am an avid fan of starcraft and sims, even red alert which is not yuri's revenge btw. Those games set my mind to join the community of gaming with local players in our community since internet is not so popular on those days (Windows 97 to ME era 😁) You will have the chance to know those people, then after playing pc, we will now play some real life street games! Oh Childhood! 😁

    Video games affected us in different ways
    including positive ones and negative ones
    I was affected by video games as I got attached to many characters such as Lara Croft and Kratos
    and I also made many friends from video games.

    Since young I was already a gamer, and gaming impacted my life in a positive way by acquiring some skills that I applied in real life. Such as, perseverance, patience, being calm, and problem solving.

    @QueenTomatofor me games is part of my life, like a family member or a friend. Playing games relieves all my stress and helps me to think and take everything positively. It challenges my brain and affects my body which is like a workout for me and helps me keep fit. I am 40 years old weighing at 69 kilograms. Thanks to the developers of the games. It also gives me the opportunity to make friends and create a clan to make it more interesting.

    @QueenTomato At the beginning of a journey into the world of games, since childhood, I was waiting for games to be released and enjoying. I didn't have the Competitive spirit then until I grew up and became eager for awesome games to come to challenge and defeat everyone and become the best.
