The lack of a positive doesn't necessarily equal a negative, but in this case, it does. Imagine someone steals something - Will the lack of putting them in Prison do nothing, or will it negatively affect other people? It will negatively affect other people.
There's better ways to improve your mental state and goodness than hobbies. Less expensive things also.
But the same thing applies to what I said about suicide - You don't even have to be depressed without unnecessary hobbies, you could get to the root of the problem if something like that happens.
Living for yourself is not bad, but the problem is in living primarily for yourself, or only for yourself. I,e., choosing to spend time and money on your own entertainment or amusement rather than using more of that time to help others.

You are full of so much hot air good sir, I honestly cannot fathom your selfishness. Who are you to tell anyone how to live their life, and yet you tell me that your sole ideology is the truth. Bullshit, I say. I am living in the way that I am living in order to live my life as I so choose. I have chosen this life and the present me is a summation of my genetics and experiences which have led me into the choice of living the life I lead. Who are you to say that this me is not ideal, especially when that ideal is a construct invented by you. Who are you to tell me that I shouldn't be the person that I am in order to be closer to what you think is ideal? Who are you to tell me that the time I spend enriching myself through my hobbies is wasted time? You do not hold dominion over anyone but yourself, and you should think long and hard about where these viewpoints stem from, because they do not come from any form of logic. You are simply holding some ideal above all else and mistakenly thinking that it is a definite truth.
There is no definite purpose to my life. I personally define where I desire to head and I will get there how I so choose. Until you show me a definite purpose, you cannot claim that my time is wasted.

Not full of hot air now, I'm actually calm.
"I honestly cannot fathom your selfishness."
I'd rather do other things than this. I'd be doing other things than this if I were selfish. I also wouldn't be advising you to help homeless people instea of playing video games if I were selfish.
"Who are you to tell anyone how to live their life"
You really need it considering you are justifying puttinf your entertainment over homeless people.
