Blackpill Videogames ARE a waste of time. If you had ANYTHING better to do with your spare time, you would be at it. No question about it.

What is productive about these
The older you get, the less of an actual cope it becomes.
I also used to think this way for a very short while a year or so back. I deeply lamented over how much time I had wasted on games and never doing anything 'productive,' like learning a new skill or something. I spent my entire adolescence just playing games over and over, and it was even worse when you considered the fact that I had an insane amount of free-time due to me blowing off almost all of my academic responsibilities (I was in a virtual academy and thus could get away with it). Every single day, of every single week, of every single year, for four years straight, I was just playing games and watching YouTube whenever I wasn't playing anything.
Looking back on it, I think a very large part of that was because I had a really toxic online friendship with this one particular guy who also had nothing to do (because he was a failure in practically every other aspect aside from, ironically, his looks) but constantly hounded me to play something and get into a voice call with him, even when I didn't want to. He would always make me feel incredibly guilty when I tried to ask for time to myself, and expected us to always be doing something together. Despite his incessant whining, he never would bother going out of his way to suggest what we should play nor did he ever show any real passion playing them. He pushed all of that onto me.
Now-a-days, he blames me for his lack of social skills or accomplishments. He's twenty now, and he hasn't done anything with his life nor has any real plan for it going forward. Jesus, even talking about this makes my blood boil... I might just make my own thread on this guy one day, but right now it's just off-topic...
As I said, I eventually realized how much time I had wasted, and I began feeling an unabating sense of dread for a long time. I eventually assured myself that I would just teach myself the things I missed out on, and that everything would be alright after that. That was when, however, I realized just how brutal being low-IQ actually is—there wasn't a single thing I could really teach myself to begin with, nor could I pick up any real skills that mattered. Any efforts I put towards trying to do anything productive was ultimately in vain.
After that, I reflected again on my relationship with games and other forms of entertainment, and I asked myself—what else can I do other than playing video games and watching stuff? I'd certainly consider myself an extrovert, but I really don't like talking with people my age. I don't really 'click' with anyone, so to say. Eventually I realized that there really wasn't anything to do other than what I had already been doing. So I finally stopped being so harsh on myself for what I did during my adolescence.
Still, I ultimately improved how I spent my time with stuff—instead of grinding away on multiplayer games that I will never be good at, I spend my time playing games that actually interest me, like JRPGs and Visual Novels (although, those are recent developments...). I also decided to pick up a few hobbies that interest me, even though I'm unsurprisingly horrible at them all. It still makes me content, though.

If you think about for a second every single hobby that exists is technically a waste of time since your only real purpose on this planet is to procreate and hobbies don't contribute to your ability to procreate if you are an ugly incel.
I don't enjoy videogames anymore, I only do them out of habit and even then I can only tolerate a couple hours max at a time before getting bored.
I agree there are more productive things to do, like reading a book or learning a skill that can make you money.
But that's not realistic for a hermit like me.
I use my time behind the PC as a form of escapism it's the only cope that distracts me from my boring miserable life.
Honestly, for the majority, if you had the genetics to be doing something better than video games, you would be doing it. Simple as that. Nature is very good at placing people with talents in the right places, most of the time.
I was sent my own way (in this case I chose video games) and that's ok. Better than drugs / alcohol.
And I think normies know this too, on some level. Though they refuse to fully acknowledge this idea as it crushes a lot of their beliefs about this life. I'm sure if you saw what these video game defenders looked like, what their lives have looked like until now, it would make sense why they defend it.

Since I've been an adult I've always thought playing video games was a waste of time and kinda boring after like 15 minutes. I'd rather watch someone else play them.
