HOW AVOID THAT VIDEOGAMES BECOME AN ADDICTION

Videogames are one of my favourite hobbies, they have a lot of positive sides, infact them could develop smartness and  hand-eye coordination, teach you how think very quickly and make fast decision, improve memory and concentration,  increase your ability  to deal with challenges and frustations, help you to build perseverance, plus a lot of others positive effects,  moreover them could help you to learn a new language in fun way, as I have always said in my  other blog.

However, I have to be honest, in the past I suffered of some side effects that sometime  you can do  if  don't use them in the right way, happened when I was very young , I made some mistakes which took me to develop an addiction, probably other people did the same , anyway after that I realized to doing  these mistakes, I started to understood  what was the right way to play game.
Sometime videogame can become an addiction and start to affect your  life , even ruin it in the worst case, I discovered some tricks that allowed me to enjoying my favourite hobbie without side effects.


                                                                                               AVOID FREE ROAMING GAME

Free roaming game could be very funny but unfortunately very often are bad, all the time I played with one of them, I started to become addicted,  more and more I was less interested in my real life and I was more and more soak in the virtual one.
Freeroaming game are a particular videogame were the map is very huge , you can walk or drive for kilometers inside it, many maps are big just like a real city , even more , in these kind of games you have a lot to walk/drive around, you have a lot of things to do, usually there are a lot of low quality sidequests, all this amount of stuff it's not good, because you are called to deal with a lot of low quality gameplay, and take time before you could feel satisfied, so , normal game where you have to play in a normal map following nothing else that a  main quest, are much better.

                                                                  PLAY ONLY WITH VIDEOGAMES,  NOT WITH ALTERNATIVE LIVES

Let me explain the difference, a videogame it's game where you play in a normal map and you follow a mainquest, you could still have a lot of choice and variety but it's still a game, who remember the first three  Resident evil ? In my opinion was been the best example of what I'm talking about, every chapter lasted only six hours, but every minutes was  priceless, was quality and not quantity.
Instead some of them are not videogames at all,  are rather alternative lives where you spend much time without do nothing, you could spend four hours with them and after realized that you didn't nothing, is what I call low quality gameplay, I'm referring to all that huge freeroaming but also to all that videogame that will mimic real life, where you could also get married, or where you have to spend a lot of time on it for reach skill levels, this is quantity and not quality, this kind of game could replace your real life without you don't realize it, stay away from them.

                                                                                                           OTHER ADVICES

1  Be carefull with some online gaming,  could develop addiction because the particular way that them are settle.

2  Avoid those too hard videogames, especially those who have a save system which you have to repeat again and again the same part.

3  Buy less videogames but with  highest quality, leave on the shelf all that garbage the will released every year.

4  Avoid all the videogames where you have to gather a ton of objects on the map.


                                                                                                             CONCLUSIONS

Right now I'm more aware about what I'm playing, I want that videogames amuse me but without loss my friends and my real life, that above mentioned advices worked for me and maybe could work also for you, I know that probably somebody could not be happy about what I wrote because them should stop to play with some of them favourite videogames, anyway let me know what you think about it, post a comment.
