So, lately I’ve been seeing some posts on gaming and I’ve been wondering. I’ve been playing Roblox for an hour and I plan to hit my usual time of 4-5 hours. I do it to pass the time.

    Nonsense. E.g. I do play a lot more than 20hrs and am not addicted. Wifey too. It’s a passion and we don’t work, so there’s plenty of time to do so. Like any other hobby.

    Addiction isn’t measured by time but harm.

      There are exceptions. 20 hours is just a rough watermark. My reply wasn’t really clear on this so I’ll amend it.

        Very rough, that’s not even 3 hours a day. Which, in my book, is very very little for a hobby. Compared to going to work for 8 hours :)
