To be a player, to be a gamer, have you ever wondered what it is to be a gamer? Have you ever wondered what video games taught you to take into your life? Or have you never stopped to think about it? After all, there are hours and hours we dedicate to them, many hours of our days and our lives. If you are good observers, you will notice that they have a lot to teach us, to inspire us. Angry, what did games teach you? What is it to be a gamer? I tell you. Games have taught me that when you encounter enemies along the way it means you are heading in the right direction. If you really want a happy ending, you're going to have to fight a lot to get it. As much as you are stressed, worried, full of problems, you need to stop and listen, because a wise person is the one who listens more and speaks less, because he learns what is heard and transmits these teachings in his eyes. There is no such thing as a weaker sex. Games have taught me that we can make mistakes several times and that problems will pile up, but if we have the patience and don't give up, the right ones make them disappear like magic. Be proud of the things you make, the things you build, even if people say it doesn't look so good, looks aren't everything. Games taught me that war... war never changes. That all choices have consequences, not just for you, but for the world and everyone around you. That villains are usually villains for a reason and that in the eyes of some they are right and are the real heroes. Games have taught me that pain is terrible, but it is a guide for us to become stronger and stronger. That dying is sad, but if it's for the right reasons and protecting the people you love, that's fine. Everybody needs love. Even if love is a pain. Betrayal only exists because it comes from those we least expect. Games have even taught me the definition of insanity. That you don't have to be of the same blood, race or species to be of the same family. Don't make a promise to a woman if you can't keep it. Rivalry does not mean enmity. If you really love a person, you just want to see them happy, even if they take full credit for something you helped. The obstacle can be gigantic, and seem impossible, we can try and fail several times, but with each attempt comes learning, with learning comes improvement, and with improvement comes overcoming, and that bogeyman will not exist more. That the journey in many cases is worth more than the ultimate reward. There are people who think that video games isolate people, make them anti-social, in 2009 I was just a kid with an xbox 360, with 300 stories to tell, that I shared with half a dozen friends, when I went online, I was just one, and today we are 3 million! 3 million talking about games, all games. And you come to tell me that video games don't bring people together? Video games bring people together. Teach. Entertain. De-stress. And it offers temporary joy to many people who can't get it out of the virtual world, because the world itself just pushes them down. Video games are not responsible for murders, they are not responsible for low grades in school, and they are not a waste of time. If you think like that, you're wrong! Being a gamer is about living many lives instead of just one. Being a gamer is like enjoying your moments alone or even squandering your competitive side. I'm a gamer. I've always been. Always will be. Sit down, get comfortable, press start go. Big hug, to all of you young people All the best, always Thank you so much for everything, heh, we are 3 million.
