Toad Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Hi Andrew, I quit the game years ago but I don't mind sharing my thoughts.Positives:* Made some great friends* Helped me through my teenage years and into my early adult life* Gave my life order and structure* Helped me plan my goals, and money handling skills for life such as saving for items* Made me a better thinker and analyst* Helped me better socially, developed a sense of humour, trusting relationships and found myself as a person as a result of the game Negatives:* Got in the way of my studies in a lot of cases* Hindered my real-world development* Always ended up playing more then I should have allocated to the game* Placed it over more-important real life tasks I'd recommend supplementing your study with this Ted-Talks: https://www.ted.com/talks/gabe_zichermann_how_games_make_kids_smarter There's tangible benefits with gaming and he talks about Generation-G, I do think RuneScape made me better as a person.I do think there's a correlation as he speaks about in that video too. there's a lot I could write here for your study about how I maybe evolved over the years but then you have quantitative research and not qualitative and I'm not sure which approach you are condoning in your study.Best of luck!
