The invisible hand of capitalism tends to let crime&#x2F;manipulative videogames flourish and educational fail. Whats at fault here? Human instict? Marketing? Will censorship result in people not glorifying it?<p>I believe that games like Yakuza, GTA and movies like the Godfather are symptoms of a greater problem, &quot;nice guys finish last&quot;. By imagining your a cold hard thug, you get the feeling of getting what you want, instant gratification, similar to masturbation. The solution isnt to take it away because videogames are practically sedatives, making people far too lazy to buy a gun. I would argue that virtues need to be shown in the positive light they create. As it stands, virtues are an excuse for storylines rather than practice or habit to feel. Difficult&#x2F;competetive games are interesting in that they reward those who practice regularly. That is a life lessons. Organization can also be taught, as well as trying to see the big picture (cardgames and meta). Playing fair&#x2F;empathy seems more difficult.<p>Ive thought a lot about this because I also don&#x27;t want criminals idolized. But I certainly dont want censorship to be the solution either
