Worthwhile or wasting time . What do you think ?

Actually my parents and some of my friends think this is wasting time. But I think video games not simple and not useless anymore. More complicated and worthwhile.
For example: My native language not english. But I can speak a little bit . I speak by rote. Because of video games dialogues, Scripts and subtitles. Also I have learned many things too. I have learned history, psychology, art and much more.
I dont see any bad effect, except dissociality

Yes games very entertaining I agree. Also, games include big universes, cultures, stories, knowledges, with great influence power. Force me to research and learn their opinions, cultures, ideas, worlds...
Ive finished yesterday "Dreamfall The Longest Journey". What a great story, What a great game.
