online gaming essay
Why people love online games for !?!?!?! <—( much apparently i cannot use all caps cuz its "rude")
hahaha …. Okay well for my theory of knowledge class'm writing a long essay (3500-4000 words) on any subject i choose … HL sooooo … I chose ITGS With my research question: "How online games affect young people's social behavior," so here goes im sure we all know that some people play a nice 52 hours a day playing with them online and WoW and stuff, so I'm just looking for opinions … thus that anyone has opinions on why some people choose to spend so much time watching his virtual character to kill other virtual characters online?
Meh, is fun, p so "how it affects the social behavior of people" I would say depands on the type of game you are playing – as a person who plays a (text-based MUD) which may have a richer social life than the average WoW junky yer. in general, text-based games called user games role, to some extent and have more developed social skills (like writing) FPS otherwise be developed over the quality of leadership (and in general douchebaggery), for example: someone who will soon give precise instructions, but not always in a friendly manner and MMORPGs: i donno, just do a search for "things Dumbass said on barrens chat 'that being said I'm sure there are some positives out of it – quick-witted acuity (all one word) and w / vent I would say that one could develop a better sense of the detection of other emotions through speech, being without a face in sight. Of Anyway, do not really have time to play many more games, I'm busy making them p. so the examination of conscience – I would simply prefer to go on the virtual real – on the rare occasions they turn on TV – and all that uaually ever by the time they get home is the news – everything is war and hatred, which constantly has me thinking to myself "what the f *** is wrong with people" – I mean, sure there is hatred and violence in the game, but nobody hurts (with some exceptions – like there was a guy who killed his friend over a sword that won a game – again, "What the fuck is wrong with people ') but for the most part is fun social environment. you know that if you play the same game as someone who is ya'll already have something in common and that friendship to come. fer to devote time to 'see their virtual character to kill other online virtual characters "really does not seem that much, surely there an element of the MMO pvp (if you talk about killing other players), but even that is a bit like a social networking strange anyway, I do not think that this is kill things as much as it is meet new people and forming new relationships – this is really what is all about the MMO, the endgame is a bit like being in a team Sports, unions compete with each other to reach first final. then there are unions that are "family guilds" more for the casual player who just wants to hang out an have a good time. I generally believe that online games affect children's social behavior for the better conversations (in general), although there would be some clumsiness of 'face to face "at first due to nerves and shyness in general i guess. I know I for one would rather write something to someone who really was somewhere and hang out, but I think it could be more due to my general dislike of people and not video games – although I found that most people we work with are similar – also have the ability to collect and carry a random conversation, usually with phrases Inbetween several hours apart.
