Are you someone who plays Pubg Mobile every day for more than 5 hours? Can you not keep yourself off from the game for even one day. Then, as per the report by the World Health Organisation, you are officially ill. WHO has recently updated its International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and has added gaming disorder under the section “disorders due to addictive behavior.” Well, this is certainly a piece of very big news as WHO is a recognized institution and if they say that gaming disorder is something, then it is definitely true.
Pubg Mobile and other games
Disorders due to addictive behaviors include gambling disorder and gaming disorder, which may involve both online and offline behavior. Excessive use of smartphones and even laptops and computers were recognized as harmful, last year in June.
After the incoming of online games, mainly Pubg, there has been a very wide increase in people who play mobile games for more than 6 hours. One thing we can counter actively say is that professional gamers like Mortal, Dynamo, and Maxtern play Pubg for more than 10 hours per day.
Are they addicts? Is every professional gamer on the planet who plays for more than 6 hours is an addict? Well, too bad, WHO has just the right explanation for this. As per them, a person who upon release of a game plays it continuously over the week but after that does not touch it will not be considered as an addict.
This is so because he is able to control his instincts and not play the game everyday. As per WHO, people who just can’t ignore playing games every day for the better part of the day will be known as addicts.
In India, Pubg Mobile fever is spreading really rapidly. Recently, we witnessed a case in which a women left her husband to go live with her Pubg playing partner. This is the extent to which the game has left its mark in the mindset of people.
One cannot help but wonder if Pubg Mobile ban is necessary? So, what do you think about the new foundation of gaming disorder? Comment down below.
