Why play video games when you could do something productive like watch police procedurals all night?

Video games dramatically accelerated my reading level as a kid, and I usually alternated between text heavy adventure games and actual books for reading out loud to my son when he was that age.

I never understood how they can't make the connection that the hobby they wasted time doing that was unproductive is the same thing in a different form

Same. I grew up playing SNES/PS1 RPG games that required a ton of reading, and loved it to the extent that I remember I was actually a little upset when I learned that FF10 was going to have voice acting in it because I enjoyed deciding what voices the characters had.

Also because FF10's voice acting killed the ability to name your party members in RPG games. :(

I've encountered some of the same attitudes with older people, where games in their eyes are stupid things for children while reading is healthy and productive... I mean, since it is something they engage in it must be... -_-
