Seriously though it is about time. Gaming can be an addiction just like anything else. I have ventured into that territory before and it is no joke. I played this MMO called 12 Sky years ago, made a guild, and comanded an entire faction (1/3 of the server), and went down as one of the best faction leaders in the game.

Do you know how I got thay status? Being an unemployed adult squating in a house I had no business being in (toxic relationship) and drinking several 5 hour energies a day for months.

Final Fantasy XIV caused some major problems in my Marraige that is now over (different relationship).

Now I just don't play MMOs. I cannot resist the temptation so I avoid them.  Eventually the urge to become the best of the best destroys any casual intent I may have once had.

Even regular games leave me neesing to get a fix everyday or I get anxious. I am aware of it though and have learned to manage it properly. Gaming addiction is a real thing and not everyone is able to control it like I do now. It is about time this became a thing.

On another note, gaming has done a lot for me. Probably kept my sanity due to gaming in a very dark period of my life. So I by no means see gaming as bad, the opposite in fact. However I know first hand that too much of any good thing can be a bad thing.
