Emotions go into the game at hand, and victory is the only option for some people - so when a winner is crowned and a loser is decided, it can be hard to hold back the emotions of the loss.Īlthough losing is hard, for some gamers the point of video games is not to rest solely on individual success, but on the success of the team in battle. Video games are equal to sports in that people get passionate and driven to succeed no matter the cost. “There have been four or five times where people have gotten really mad and called someone a name or just started being super loud and angry.” “I’ve seen some people get really angry, over-competitive at times, and it is tough seeing my friends or people I respect not in their most coherent state of mind,” said Arthur Saldana, junior psychology major. It is not always a digital nirvana, sometimes conflict in the digital world can exit the screen and explode in real life. The gamer community can bring people together or divide people and cause conflict between friends and family. or by battling other clans from around the world in League of Legends. Students find community through video games and bond together through fighting friends in Super Smash Bros. People find community through sports, work or even classes, but community can also be found through the digital world of video games-a world where every person is defined by the avatar they use in each game, and differences are thrown out for the common goal of trying to win for your team.
Community is essential to life for any student.
