"Dear viewers, welcome to our new question show, we invited a well-known sociologist today, and today we are discussing a relatively special topic, that is, what can video games bring to us? what."

In a program on a TV station in the United States, a young host is hosting the program with a smile on his face.

"Let me introduce you to Mr. Jean, a sociologist."

"Hello everyone."

An old man with glasses and gray hair and beard greeted the camera.

After a brief introduction and greeting, the host started today's topic: "Mr. Jean, have you learned about the video game industry recently?"

"Video games, of course I know this very well. My child likes video games very much. Even though he is in his 30s now, he still remembers to play video games for an hour or two every day. Perhaps it is because For this reason, I, a sociologist, became interested in video games and wanted to learn more about them.”

"Okay, so what do you think about video games, Mr. Gene?"

"This is an emerging industry. It can be regarded as a young industry among countless industries in human history, and this industry is also growing. In the eyes of capital, video games now have great potential."

The host said, "Mr. Jean, do you mean in the eyes of capital?"

"That's right." Sociologist Gene nodded, and then continued, "According to my investigation, video games are a very characteristic industry, and this thing does not have any physical output, and even in my opinion does not have any right Industries that bring value to human development are now becoming mainstream.”

"From Mr. Gene's words, you obviously have a lot of dissatisfaction with video games."

"Of course, because of video games, my child doesn't do proper things every day, obviously he can use the time playing games to do more and more meaningful things, for example, you can go to work and take care of the family. , to do things that are meaningful to society as a whole, instead of wasting time on this meaningless entertainment."

"Mr. Jean, but there are many similar things in this world. For example, the film and television industry seems to be similar to the game industry?"

"That's not the same." Gene replied decisively, "The film and television industry is an art. After so many years of development, the film and television industry has brought a lot of positive effects to people. You can see that there are so many well-known inspirational film and television works. , it has brought a lot of motivation to our human beings. This is good. There are still many film and television dramas expressing their thoughts and expressing their emotions. I think these are all good, but video games do not have any The benefit of that, and that's where the film and television industry is different from video games."

The host nodded suddenly: "It seems to be the case, the game really seems to be a relatively bad industry."

Sociologist Gene went on to add: "Also, what do you think video games are promoting? Let me give you an example, like Dragon Quest, where all superstructures are described as dumb or even evil. Yes, this is obviously the most superficial misinterpretation."

"There is also the game Monster Hunter, which uses weapons to hunt those creatures that are already very precious. Isn't this also encouraging people to destroy the ecological balance? And the game Monster Hunter also encourages people to use violence to achieve their own goals. There are also so many beautiful characters in the game, mediocre faces can only be passerby characters forever, these are contrary to sociology and many other disciplines.”

"Wow, I didn't think of that at all."

The host suddenly realized that he felt as if a new world had been opened up and he had a new understanding of this world.

Sociologist Jean was very satisfied with the host's reaction, so he continued: "There is another most typical incident that should be relatively famous recently. I would like to call it the civilized addiction incident."

"Huh? This is still a very novel term."

"Well, please remember that this is the noun I named it. Others can use this noun in the future, just bring my name."

The host immediately asked: "Then what is the meaning of this civilization addiction incident?"

"This, it is closely related to a game, the name of this game is "Civilization""

"Ah, I know this game, and I can hear the name on some social media recently, and in the discussions of some people around me."

"This game is really heinous. Some games in the past had the misleading effect of thinking and judgment, and this game will make people completely addicted and even unable to extricate themselves. I have heard that many people forget life and work because of this game. Forget studying, do you think this kind of thing would be good?"

The host quickly shook his head: "That must be bad."

"Yeah, it sucks, that's why I offered to participate in this question show of yours, where I'm going to appeal to people not to be deceived by the appearance of being confused by video games, it's a very bad Things, I would like to call it poison, as long as you are a little more awake, you should never be poisoned by this poison, you should do your best to resist video games, this is what I insist on.”

……

"A lot of bullshit."

This is the only evaluation given by Zhu Yuxing.

As soon as the show was launched, someone showed it to Zhu Youxing.

Among them, the sociologist pointed to the attack almost by name.

Entertainment is an innate need of human beings, but some people have strong or weak control ability, video games are not to blame, some people drink all day and all night, some people play chess all day and all night, and some people play all day and all night. Go to the ball game.

Do you really expect everyone to work like a ruthless work machine?

What is the meaning of life.

So Zhu Yuxing is very dismissive of this kind of program.

It's just another way of showing where a new ass sits.

He wants to fight for the right to speak for his own interests.

To understand this core is to know what these people want to do.

It will come after all.

In the original world, political correctness gradually penetrated from the film and television industry to the video game industry over time.

Later, the ugly characters in the game, as well as some game features such as deliberately avoiding hunting animals, were also designed to take care of the feelings of these people.

There is no other reason, it is because these people are the loudest, so we must consider these people who are the loudest.

However, Zhu Yuxing has no interest in taking care of these people.

He came to play games, not to take care of his father.
