Can Gaming just be used a source of entertainment? , K P Pronab Krishna Gupta

Gaming is often seen as time-wasting activity,with no foreseeable benefits. People do not view gaming as a career but rather as a source of entertainment, which is also it is quite good in. However, many of them. fail to observe the hidden usefulness of gaming. These include improvement in social and self skills, career opportunities and many more.

What is Gaming?

Gaming is the practice of playing video games on an electronic device such as, a computer, console or even a phone. It might not seem like much but it is quite something trust me. Gaming as an industry has come a long way. From pixelated 2D characters in games to graphics which makes us question whether it's reality or not, gaming industry has boomed and will continue to do so in the near future. Many startups have become multi-billion dollar companies because of gaming. Some that can be mentioned here are Epic Games and PUBG Corporation. Game production houses are continuously trying their best to outperform themselves and other companies from last year by creating the most stunning and breath-taking game of the year. The gaming world might seem small, but once someone gets into it, they will actually be able to see the true depth of it.


The benefits of Gaming

Despite this common notion, there are benefits of gaming. The significant plus to play is being able to air anger non-aggressively. What would be better than sucking out that non-existent monster after a long time of school/work or additional difficulty? If the method of venting were taken out,hyper-aggressive people would be forced to see other means to eliminate their anger and disappointment. Gamers usually have an upper hand on the general public, when it comes to reaction time activities which require a good reaction time. They have also been seen to have a great sense of team work, as most games require you to play as a team. Critical thinking is also an attribute gained by playing games as most games want you to think about what effect your action in the present may have on your future. You can also earn as a gamer! Yes, it's not just something to do when you feel bored, gaming can also be taken as a career. Many professional players have joined the eSports scene to compete against great player like them. All the players get huge amounts of money after participating in the tournament.


Esports

Esports (also called electronic sports) is the kind of recreation competition using video games. Esports frequently takes the form of organised, multiplayer game contests, especially between individual players or as teams. Although organised contests have long been the role of game society, these were mostly between amateurs until the recent 2000s, when involvement by paid gamers and spectatorship at these events through live streaming saw a large surge in popularity. By the 2010s, esports was a important component in the game industry, with some strategy developers actively planning and offering support for tournaments and other events.

Messengers from the Deep

  What beckons humans towards the stars? I do not really remember the first time I ever felt the serene wonder one feels when looking up at the night sky; I just remember it always being there. There is something ancient in the feeling, probably left over in our genetic memory from our distant ancestors.  A few years back, the news was abuzz with the arrival of a visitor from one of those stars. For the first time, at least in modern human memory, we identified an object that came from outside our solar system . Charmingly named “Oumuamua”, Hawaiian for “First Messenger” or “First Scout”, it was an asteroid  that originated from a distant star system and flew by Earth at dizzying speed. I will go on a tangent here and marvel at the originality of the people in charge of naming stellar objects.
