+imStorm3r me
+imStorm3r I learned English from videogames,movies,cartoons,books and videos.
Me when I didn't play videogames I got like A- Lol,when I play videogames,I just got A+
+imStorm3r Same here.. My native language is French, and when I was little I didn't have any fucks to give about not understanding a language, so I learned English from videogames.
I need to show this to my teacher. he thinks that EVERY single kid on earth is obsessed with video games and constantly gives us lectures on "how video games will make you stupid." who thinks I should play this to my teacher?
me
do it!
Do it, you have my support.
TheGreatRandomizer22 // DarthAAO well, my teacher is a boy so..
YES
No.
I'm from the best English speaking country in the world where the native language is not English. Even so, I learnt more English from video games and UA-cam then the English class.
Kamiel De Koning and what country is that
@Finder Outer LMAO STAVSHGAJA
i cry in april r/whoosh
English is my first language, so video games didn’t really teach me English, but they’ve taught me to improve the English I already know.

This dude: Playing video games can actually improve your eyesight.
Me: My whole life's a lie!!
Me: hmmm sure...
Actually, yes, they can, if you don't stare the screens way too close or too long..for example, FPS
not just that. videogames can make you attached to characters and encourage deep emotional thought
like the last of us?
FountainofFire f**k yesh.
FountainofFire oh yes
I actually rarely feel an attachment to video game characters. I prefer to reserve serious bonds for real people. And yes, I am a gamer.
so true... i tell people that all the time... you get more attached to character because for the majority of the game you are that character and as they work their way through their story you are right there with them rooting them on, feeling their pain, or happiness... more so then just watching actors portray a character on TV. Zacks death even tho you know its bound to happen, that lead up to that point is so epic then when he falls to the ground and the cutscene plays you cant help but get all emotional...
I played a lot of RPGs with heavy dialogue. Video games boosted my English vocab way above the rest of the class when I was a kid and I knew a lot of words the other kids didn't, and then playing them in Japanese boosted my fluency faster than my peers. So from a language point of view games were a fantastic learning tool. Not sure about the rest though, I haven't noticed much
Mass Effect is my favorite example
Puzzle and strategy games exist
Same! I’m great at spelling especially I play Fire Emblem games which opened me to horizons with my vocabulary.
Actually computer game motivate me to learning how to operate PC. I'm born in 1980s. In my teenage, there are not so many people know how to do that.
This video: Video games can make you smarter.
Me: MOM!!! I NEED TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING!!!

I did awful at the color thing...

Honestly CoD isn’t that skill based. It has a far lower skill ceiling compared to games like csgo, tf2 and quake

All about fortnite now mate
When I was a child, Only games I was playing is tomb raider 3 and 4. For a person my age at that time those games were brutally hard for me, so it took me years to complete them and I played a decent hours each day. There was no hand handling in the game, no guides, no internet, nothing to help me. I got stuck in some places for months and I can't tell you how satisfied I was when I figure things out. I learned how to explore, how to remember paths I need to back track, I learned to dare to try crazy things, I learned to control my fears, to think out of the box and most importantly, I learned to never let go! Thank you lara croft for what you taught me.
and then there are moments where you're like, "IT WAS THAT EASY?! WHY DIDN'T I DO THAT BEFORE!?!"
XD
RootBeerGamer I grew up thinking that boobs were triangular XD jk
disklosr ok. thats good
When I was in second grade, I played Legend of Zelda all the time and like you, there were no guides for it (probably because no one plays Legend of Zelda). When I beat a dungeon, I would get so excited! One time, I stopped playing for a month because I was raging, came back to it and beat it! I was so happy.
I am still stuck in a dungeon in Legend of Zelda to this day. Help.
Blazingshade Let's Play I'm a fan of zelda series but never layed the original one
I have been playing COD from the past 2 years. I have observed that my Reaction Speed, attention to detail, decision making speed has increased, ability to perceive a problem clearly and arrive at a solution has increased significantly.
DANG I need that decision making speed
@@thomasvandermolen8144 Play video games :)
True but the reason a lot of people think games are bad is because you can increase these skills without video games and much faster in a more natural way with more benefits (health / fitness / useful at jobs) for example:
Maths - Ability to perceive a problem clearly and arrive at a solution has increased significantly
Football - Decision making speed has increased
Art - Attention to detail
Dodgeball - Reaction speed
Consider too that the skills you choose to develop may in isolation be useless in real life (e.g. fast reaction time but obese and slow) or not be easily applied to any job you do in the future. There are also tradeoffs spending all your time in front of a screen e.g fitness levels, myopia and bad eye sight and so on... this leads many people to see it as a waste of time when you could probably just work harder in school (Maths / Art) and exercise (Football / Dodgeball) and get the exact same results in less time with positive side effects instead of negative.
Not to say games aren't amazing and very fun but just my perspective.
@@unnamed7158 a lot? More like a few people.
Probably, but it's subjective, and no, wrong..without video games, learning those wouldn't be as fun & enjoyable, and even some of the things you've mentioned, like math, school, etc are actually more frustating than entertaining, lol, thus, make you much slower at learning..but in video games, internet, etc, learning those can be fun & entertaining. Also, pls explain what makes you think video games aren't as natural as footballs, maths, etc? Who said that video games can't give you health benefits, fitness, etc? The "video games only have bad effects" is just a plain myth, and has been debunked by a lot of people..btw, in fact, many people learned about things through video games, youtube, etc much more than in schools.
Math video games exist..math itself for a lot of people is actually more frustating than entertaining. You can also learn problem-solving in video games effectively without being frustated.
Video games about football exist..btw, you act that footballs don't have bad effects, lol..their bad effects can actually be way worse, for example, extreme physical injuries.
Video games is a form of art
So, you think dodgeballs don't have bad effects? If video games give you bad effects such as eye problems, then dodgeballs can also give you physical injuries, lol. Both have their own pros and cons..again, video games can also make you better at reaction speed as good as them, and they're not just about balls, since video games vary differently.
Wdym in isolation? Lol, what makes you think playing video games requires you to be in isolation? Also, playing video games DON'T automatically make you obese or fat, as long as you still do fitness.
Why? Tell me the reason..you probably just making up things.
Yes, because spending all your time doing nothing in front of a screen is basically the same as having fun, learning cognitive skills, problem-solving, better reaction speed, learning things through them, for example, languages, animals, etc, reducing stress, improving brain & mental health, and many more. Also, everything has its own pros and cons, not only video games..so, you're being inconsistent here, for example, football can lead into physical injuries, concussions, traumatic brain injuries, etc..math, for a lot of people, is much more frustating than entertaining, so they would actually be more stressful rather than a way to learn. schools are mostly about grades & passing, not learning..in fact, i learned things much more through video games, movies, UA-cam, google, etc than in schools, lol..schools are actually frustating & stressful. Sure, you can work harder in them, but again, it would just be more stressful & depressing..while in video games, movies, internet, etc, you can learn without worrying about depression and stuff, and you don't need to work as hard.
Again, math video games exist..but it's not the only genre that you can learn about problem-solving, most of other genre of video games can make you better at it.
Lol, who said that footballs don't have bad benefits? Like i said before, everything has its own pros and cons, not just video games..if video games can lead to eye problems, then football actually can lead to physical injuries, high rates of concussions, traumatic brain injuries, etc. "less time", that's subjective..you can get the exact same results by playing video games, but with much more varied things, while football, dodgeball, etc are just about balls, while video games vary differently.
Lmao, are you joking or what? You think video games only have bad effects and don't have positive effects? Lol, this video and the entire comment section prove the other way around..again, playing video games can lead to numerous positive effects, such as cognitive skills, improving mental & brain health, problem-solving, learning things such as languages, animals, countries, etc, which disproves all of your claims.
Yes, that's just your perspective, and your perspective is bad and you definitely should feel bad about it.

I found this video to be really insightful and it provides an interesting perceptions of video games. I also found the "too much of everything" part to be extremely relevant to the elements presented in your video. I personally find that games tend to take the blame for issues that arise from misuse or abuse of gaming features or contents. Just like you stated, if someone dies from water toxicity, we would not start claiming that water is dangerous for health and yet quite a lot of people tend to place a lot of focus on the negative aspects of video games while simply overlooking the positive impacts that video games may have on social as well as mental health. I believe that for a lot of things we need to focus on the positive more than just berating anything simply for the sake of standing out or trying to seem like a special snowflake who does not follow current trends. All the positive aspects highlighted in your video would hopefully encourage a more welcoming perspective on video games. I just want to say kudos for this video and keep up the good work to change the mindset of our society on video games. #gaminglife
mom: get off those games and do something useful!
ME: but I'm *learning*
How
Hahaha. For me the prob is I'm the mom playing video games all the time. Well I guess it's not really a problem because I find video games really do help with stress. Nothing like playing cod blacks ops 2 to take the stress of kids yelling about crap all day.
naturegirl2110 ok...

Dark souls gave me depression and anxiety
Play Flappy Bird and say that again
And a hatred on demon princes
School*
Dark Souls caused depression yes, but not anxiety. You know when someone will attack you, depression comes because of how dark and bleak the world's atmosphere instills in your chest and head except DS3, which was just a hard action game with no emotional movement at all.
WELL. At least that depression and anxiety is on a GAME and not LIFE.

+Melee Huijbens pacman might be better than COD but that game will not make you smarter than playing COD or any other game that has multiplayer mode. I mean you can play CS, battlefield, Halo etc if you don't like COD. All of them will make you smarter than playing pacman.

I remember when I was plucked out of public school to do homeschool, and one of my tasks for school everyday was to play a video game for an hour a day. My stepdad later told me that it's because the games he made me play (Death's Door, Chrono Trigger) would help me in puzzle solving and math. Needless to say, I wish I could go back to those homeschooling days, because I got to play video games at the start of every morning for school lol.
I have to give a speech about this in my public speaking class tomorrow and all your information just helped me a lot! Thank you!

Yeah, I noticed it too but I am happy that evidence of games improving your brain exists. You can use it to dispute non-gamers' claims against video games. I find that to be quite satisfying. Games like Professor Layton and Ace Attorney actually improved my argument skills and puzzle solving skills. I still have 2 PL and 3 AA games to play so that's neat.
Shooting games increased my reaction time, RPG games taught me many life lessons and improved my vocabulary. Strategy games like Fire Emblem improves, well, strategy. Challenging games builds my courage, determination and will power. Pretty sure there's more. I just play them for fun but the benefits is a welcome bonus.
True but you can improve those quickly and in a more easily applicable way
Dodgeball - Reaction time,
Study religion and philosophers - life lessons
Practice writing stories and reading - improved my vocabulary
Playing sports - strategy
Proper self motivation everyday learning how to have internal drive - Courage, determination and will power.
The problem is when these games are taken away will you be able to compete with someone in real life in terms of reaction time who practices in real life vs you who practices in a game. The answer is likely no also many parents dream is for their childs to be successful and nearly all of the things above as alternatives correlate with higher income and better life outcomes than gaming: millionaires read more than average people, millionaires spend less time on devices and social media, millionaires spend more time playing sports. Also due to evolution the skills you don't use decay over time which of course causes concern for parents as children develop imaginary skills in games instead of real life applicable ones that will help them in life.
This isn't meant to throw you of gaming I think it's wonderful just trying to explain the other side of the coin.
@@unnamed7158 playing video games can improve those things as good, fast, and applicable way..
It's subjective, and no, wrong..without video games, learning those wouldn't be as fun & enjoyable, and even some of the things you've mentioned, like math, school, etc are actually more frustating than entertaining, lol, thus, make you much slower at learning..but in video games, internet, etc, learning those can be fun & entertaining.
Video games can improve your reaction time as quick as it..and you wouldn't get physical injuries, and they're leagues ahead in terms of variation..dodgeball is just about ball, while video games vary differently.
Life lessons could also be achieved through playing games, and even better..again, some people find it not as entertaining & exciting as playing games, for example, in games, you're experiencing the stories in the games.
What about people who don't know how to make stories then? Or people who doesn't like reading?
Yes, you can, but playing video games can also improve it as good & fast..and it's much more fun & enjoyable, while at the same time learning things like vocabulary
Strategy & sport games exist
But again, it's subjective..and yes, playing video games can make you better at strategy as good as sports, you wouldn't get physical injuries, traumatic brain injuries, etc, and they're much more varied, not just about balls.
Who said that you can't get motivations from games? Again, you're just talking nonsense.
It's subjective, but yes you can..so your answer is likely no.
Who said that you can't be successful as a gamer or by playing video games as one of the ways?
And again, that's subjective, but yes video games can also come with income as good and life outcomes..yes, there are countless of examples of gamers, for example gaming UA-camrs who live a happy life, which debunks your nonsense claim.
Not all millionaires read more than average people
Not all millionaires spend less time on devices
Not all millionaires spend more time playing sports
You're just generalizing people, m8.
And do you think there aren't millionaire gamers? Yes there are, just a quick search and you'll find them.
wdym by due to evolution the skills you don't use decay over time? That has nothing to do with this.
Video games literally have tons of real life based skills..realism exists in even the most fantastious game. So your comment makes no sense
Uh, yes? Playing video games can improve real life skills that would help us better in life, such as cognitive skills, and many more.
But unfortunately, none of the things you've said was true.

minmin639 I'M CONFUSED!
The answer is yes. I learned new words and it inspired me to learn to languages. I'm learning Italian now because I was obsessed with Assassin's Creed and Ezio speaks it. I was at school and I recently finished assassin's creed 3, we were doing a test on the Revolutionary War and the question was "who was the French man that helped the colonies". I remembered assassin's creed and I remembered it was the Marquis Lafayette. I also learned surviving skillsl

It does not. Gamers have a much stronger tendancy to belive they are alert when they are actually not.

5-10 per week, thats rookie hours
True af lol
Yea I'm an rookie yay :)
30 hours at bare minimum to consider yourself a full on gamer (2 hours less than 4 hours a day)
I’m playing like 5-6 hours a night
I AM GRIF I usually play about 13 hours a day when I dont have school.The longest ive played is only 18 hours tho.Ig I'm a rookie.
When I was a kid, I started learn English with Pokémon games, and I've noticed that my memory is so good because I remember all the games I played and all the details of them. I don't say you need to spend more time in video games that your work and studies, but is a good reward to give you after do something important to relax yourself.

ALLLRIGHTTT!!!!
crispy bacon GIVE BIRTH
Of course they do! Who wondered about this? Gaming can inspire you, stimulating your imagination and lead to giving birth to extremely unique and ahead of our time ideas. It is like opening a treasure chest, our own minds. It just needs some moderation, so it can fit in your program without prohibiting you taking care of tasks and enjoying other things, like going out or work on something you love.
After playing consistent hours of Rainbow 6 everyday I’m finding my problem solving skills, reflex times and attention to small detail has significantly improved and I think it’s really cool
I playing games like 10 hours per day and i've done it my whole time
Play less please :)
I cant i am to addicted :'(
Lol I'm with you, but over time I've lost interest in games. They're still fun, but I ended up playing them less and less as I got older. That might happen to you as well. Happy gaming
Nope nothing works
I am to addicted to games so i am home and playing
I LEARNED LOTS FROM UA-cam
Hehe
For that color thing, the meta is to not look at the whole word, but only see a part of the screen and only try to detect the color, can also put center of the screen like millimeters away from your eyeballs and all you see is a full solid color
my hobby is gaming and i mostly learned how to read type/write on the internet. they also solve problem solving in quest based games so yes they can make you smart in my opinion
I hate when people say video games are violent or a waste of time, and yet EVERYONE is always watching rated R movies. at least you interact with it when you play video games, movies are sitting there staring at a screen while not moving.

In Denmark we have a Minecraft class, because it helps creativity :v

+Augustine Uzochukwu I thought you meant overpriced for DLCs, never respawn after death, if you cheat for money/xp you get banned for living, and the rich devs who say they're MLG, empowers everything we use/touch.

Ok so fun fact I grew up with dyslexia I struggled with reading and spelling a lot
But once I started playing video games like the legend of Zelda I was able to get better at reading and it’s great to know that I’m not the only one with this issue
Thanks for this, now I know how to manage my gaming time properly :)

Games are definitely good for your brain, most games do need skills and brain power to play especially strategy and mmorpg which increase your creativity and shooters increase your alertness so i am happy to play them whenever i can
Rip for people who disliked this comment
I’ve gotten pretty good at hand eye coordination playing certain video games. Even my parents said that while I played rolling sky or dancing line or something
Thank you really much. You helped me with my school essay. :-)
Ain't nothing a waste of time if your having fun
Until you realize that everyone has to chip in to run the society to maintain modern life.
well, i started playing when i was 3
I'm from Poland and (because all my games were english) i could read in english way better than i could in polish.
now i have some problems in my country, i'm more likely to understand the messange when it's in english than when it's in polish.
also i always got the best marks at school, games made everything way easier because i met with all those "school stuff" everyday.
maths? well everywhere
history? i was playing a lot of historic strategy games
Age of Empires type of thing?
It's a rts like starcraft for the computer that probably would never be available on the button phone because it's too complex
PT0MCIO Gaming hey I'm from Poland but I live in the UK.
i'd really love to be in the UK. GET ME OUT OF THIS MADNESS CALLED POLAND
damn this country gone wrong
PT0MCIO Gaming You should try playing HOI4. Its a fun historic strategy game.
Those blue circles and different-colored words. I passed them all. I HAVE ASCENDED!
I once spent 4 hours wondering what to do in Water Hazard in HL2 when I realized I don't need a key for that door, I have a crowbar.
I learn English from games
skx132 same
Even a bit of other vocabulary on other languages like japanese and I also learned a bit of italian in assassins creed 2.
i don't think roblox will teach you much
Aleksandar Popovic Instead of "I am age", use "I am 10 (11) years old" lol. I doubt roblox don't teach english that much
yeah me too.its because when NPCs gives you a quest you listen and try to find out what they want hence you try to understand what they try to say.I say english teachers use videogames to teach people English.
Video games help you learn faster and think quickly on the fly.
videos games learn how to be STUPID DUDE
KizuJansen Villaruz then why i can say china? Im english
idk
Jevon Jackson learn more all story?
KizuJansen Villaruz He has better grammer than you degenerate.
I would love to hear about the science of video game addiction and how to quit
Finally as a society we are starting to understand not only the value of video games but also their utility as a tool for self-improvement. Thank you AsapSCIENCE.
