Are Video Games Your Outlet to the Dark Side?
Ever play a game where you could kill an entire town just for the fun of it… and you actually do? Are you the type of person that will make the evil choice every time you can, just because it’s more entertaining? Well, you’re not the only one. A lot of us do, and perhaps that fuels the undeserved rumors that we, as gamers, are violent and destructive people.
Now, just because I like to play Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and murder every character in a town does not make me a bad person. It just means that I find a healthy outlet for my inner rage. Everyone gets angry, and I find that if I blow things up in a video game, I am much less tempted to do something I would regret in real life. So that’s a good thing, right?
Well, maybe not.
