It's brutal, I love video games but I just can't play them much anymore, I know how dangerous it can be to get sucked in.

Yeah for a few years when I was younger I was addicted to playing competitive online shooters, mostly halo. Its like a combination of a good retreat and something that you're obsessive about getting better at. I think thats a similar experience to playing sports except it doesnt require in person interaction which is why I liked it so much.

I'm not really addicted to video games and don't even play it anymore (did so as a kid though), I'm much more addicted to the internet in general, especially places like these where you're free to speak your mind and with a lot of diverse content in it. Other than that yeah, being addicted to vidya (not just casually playing it) is an incel trait.

I think its true in some cases, and it might even cause low social status rather then be a cause of low social status
personally I was playing video games before even have too much social interaction and going to kinder garden (around late age 2)

I am mainly addicted to the internet right now, and at times get addicted to hoi4 for a few weeks and then stop
honestly I feel like I learned from the internet quite a lot and it stimulated me a lot intellectually wise, I look at this forum
and incels.is as an important mile stone in my life with figuring out myself and things that happen in daily basis

I have a social group and friends who respect me now, but idk if its because of past experience, personality or a combination, but
I enjoy the internet more and usually refuse to go out and meet people

I loved competitive online games. IRL I also did sports for a while, but never had that competitive drive there for some reason like I did with academia or videogames.
