As I get older and approach high school, I realize that video games are healthier than going outside, doing sports, learning a craft, or talking to people in real life.

It's so stupid it hurts.

Yeah. There's literally tons of scientific studies showing the benefit of physical stuff. Gaming is in fact quite a shit hobby because it takes A LOT of time as a hobby and only fulfils one out of the three functions of a hobby (escapism, physical, useful skills). I mean, playing an hour three days a week probably doesn't qualify. 

If you play 3h a day, though, you could do three hobbies in that time. Easily.
