Negative Impacts That Computer Games Have On Society & Individuals

Society
  • There is no face to face communication between you and the other player. This means if you were to get a job you may struggle with communicating face to face with people because you are use to doing it online. This may reduce your chances of getting a job if you are unable to communicate with others face to face. 
  • You could also be running the risk of communicating with someone who is not who you think they are. Young people could be talking to someone there age when actually they are talking to someone who is older then them. This may run the risk of younger people meeting up with someone who can harm them.
Individuals

  • You could connect with the wrong group of people within the game. This could also mean that you could be talking to a group of people who are not what you think they are. Like talking to someone who is 50 but makes you believe is younger and your age.
Injuries Or Health Problems
  • You could also run the risk of getting injuries such as repetitive strain injury from being at a computer keyboard or mouse for too long or sitting in an uncomfortable position. To prevent this adjust your position of the chair so that you are able to sit at the computer comfortably and with no injury
  • You could also get eye strain from sitting at an computer for too long. This can harm your eyes and you may need to wear glasses later. Take breaks from the computer every now and then to rest your eyes.
  • Having the volume on too loud when listening to music or what is going on in the game could harm your ears and reduce hearing later on.
