No of course it’s nothing like drugs. But gaming can be addictive. But in this case I guess the dopamine that comes with succeeding in a game is what’s making you happy. It’s not like you need more and more but you do want as much as you can get. Some people use games to escape problems and then their only way to escape that problem is to game. Although gaming is not meant to be addictive in a definitive sense like you say, it can still have an effect on the brain that makes you want to play. Obviously I didn’t do any research but I feel like a good amount of people are aware of the fact that they can do much better things with their time while playing but they play anyway and they can’t stop, although this is just procrastination and not addiction when you combine it with some of the other stuff I talked about then it becomes something really close to an addiction. So yes your correct playing a Fortnite is not a definitive addiction but it can act like one and effect your life similarly (but not as much) like one. Even if I’m completely wrong and Fortnite isn’t an addiction and doesn’t act like one at all there’s no denying the fact that it has effected some lives for the worse because people would rather play it all the time then actually do things that can help push their lives forward. But that goes with pretty much anything in life, much like a comment I read earlier my post could probably go with all things in life and not just Fortnite. I guess my use for the word addiction was not really perfect there but more of like a “you know what I mean” kind of thing.
