themselves in established characters. They can earn a sense of relaxation and refresh

playing time is uncontrolled, it can produce detrimental impacts on health. These
people follow a sedentary style, meaning the lack of exercises or physical activities.

suffer from eye — related problems, including eyestrain or shortsightedness. More

people get too immersed into the game, they will neglect the elements around life such
as family, friends, work, etc. Moreover, while immersed in a virtual world, it affects
face-to-face communication. The lives of young people will become boring and
meaningless, and they run the risk of falling into a state of depression.
