It is all about perspective.
That said you will never convince me otherwise that overly violent games do not influence the weak minded or soulless.
And I wouldn’t try. As they will. To a point. Let me explain.
But the weak minded can be strengthened and shown purpose ans responsibility. They are weak for a reason. And for the soulless?
They are soulless. They need neither VGs or Rap music for them to do evil. Any old excuse or none at all is fine. But saying Games et all ‘cause’ X is like saying guns cause violence. All a matter of perspective.
Millions of gamers/metal/rap fans lead peaceful lives.
