5.) Gamers live in fantasy land
Video games enable us to live out a fantasy through immersing ourselves in a world and letting us role-play into different types of characters. I can understand why people might think gamers aren't really that much interested in reality because there's so much more power in video game worlds.
I drown myself in Skyrim all day, but that doesn't mean that real life isn't appealing. Others may purely prefer real life, some like video game life better, and there are also others who enjoy both worlds equally.
