Why do people like playing video games?


Video games offer full immersion into a complex world where decisions and actions affect the state of the world and outcomes. With video games, a player can be racing classic cars on the beaches of Europe and then immediately be playing a wizard during medieval times. Video games not only stimulate the mind improving decision making skills and cognitive reasoning, but also strengthens digit dexterity and coordination. Additionally, the activity of playing video games is fun! Especially when it comes to multiplayer games; it's always fun to play with your friends. Personally, I like the stories that video games tell in such meticulous detail.
