Answer 2

The aesthetics and principles of gaming culture have had an increasing effect on mainstream culture. This has led to the gradual acceptance of marginalized social groups and increased comfort with virtual worlds and the pursuit of new means of interaction.

Answer 3

Well, it depends in the video game world, As for fictional fighting games, It doesn't really cause violence, and I know that from experience because I play fighting games quite a lot. But I will say that playing fighting games could have an effect on your personality, as in, you may start fighting like those characters against an Imaginable opponent. As for shooting/war type games, This may REALLY cause violence, especially for the young ones out there, but it also still depends on how you react to the shooting games, and how long you play. You never want to play too much of those games, or just gams in general. Shooting games like the Call of Duty series could give you knowledge on how to act against someone in a gun fight, or in war, so that is really like the only thing you could benefit from. But other shooting games like DOOM, and Other Alien/Zombie shooting games won't really give you any benefits at all. And lastly, Survival/Strategy games. These games most certainly give you brain knowledge. Games like Minecraft, Candy Crush, Conan Exile, Ark Survival Evolved, and others will really put a massive affect of focus on your brain, causing you to unlock a new level of knowledge. The bad side effect is that if you play too much- because I know strategy and survival games are addictive- you could cause a strain on your brain or eyes and get a headache. So, to conclude this answer, It's mostly about how long you play, because you could really fry your brain with these addictive games. However, I have nothing against people playing any game except inappropriate games, but just make sure you don't let you or others play dozens upon dozens of hours of video games. And play board games every now and then, that also helps you with getting your brain stronger.
