Many fans on this Reddit post cast their opinions about this serious matter. Some took the side of the post author; some thought it was not a big deal. Here’s what the fans say:
This fan thinks the game can be “mentally exhausting” but “super fun.” He also stated that he is enjoying the game but is not obsessed with it.
Another fan, too, didn’t admit the fact that this Riot shooter can be really addictive.
This fan previously thought the game to be addictive but later realized it was more of a means to hang out with friends.
Now, here is a fan who accepts the fact that he was once addicted to this game. In order to get out of that addiction, he had to quit the game.
Another fan too once was a huge addict of this game, as he was concerned with every little aspect of the game, like aim training, deathmatches, and all.
These days, people spend hours and hours playing the game, trying to improve their aim through various routines and drills.
Some people do these things, neglecting important parts of their daily lives, even personal time and professional careers. Many fans prefer to sit at the game on weekends instead of hanging out with friends or families.
Valorant – Grind or Addiction?
Sitting all day long on the gaming chair hustling on Valorant will only do any good if you are aiming to develop your career in the eSports arena. Yeah, it’s true that it takes hours and hours of practice to ace your aim to the top if you want to join any eSports team of this game.
Now, here comes the main point. If nothing like this is circling in your mind, but you are still spending around 6+ hours of your day playing Valorant, then you have serious issues of addiction. Actually, the game is built in a certain way that your mind doesn’t let it go easily.
If you win a match, you start another one in the excitement of winning the previous match. If you have lost a match, you would still start another match because of ego. Video games are actually a way of destressing yourself after a tiring day at work or school. But it is never a path to disappear from your real life. And people have to understand it very well.
