Playing video games has more benefits than what meets the eye. It helps calm your nerves down and increase your focus. Playing games requires extreme focus and manual dexterity, which, in hindsight, helps you overcome anxiety and stress.

The Joe Rogan Experience is among the most listened podcasts globally.

This is not it; it is also believed that surgeons who play video games are 26% better at performing surgery than their peers who do not play games. Joe Rogan and Elon Musk talk about the benefits of playing video games that might hush the critics trying to get video games banned.

Even Elon Musk And Joe Rogan Are All For Playing Video Games

In a recent podcast with Elon Musk, hosted by Joe Rogan, they are seen talking about the mental health benefits of playing video games. There are a lot of pros to playing games, and relieving stress and anxiety is just at the superficial level of these claims.

There are many people who think playing video games is a frivolous endeavor; however, even Elon Musk is of the opposing opinion. It is believed that playing difficult games, or rather games at higher difficulty, enables you to put all your attention into that single activity, which by extension helps you forget all your worries and teleports to you another moment in time for a while. It has a calming effect on you.

Games could help people going through depression, anxiety, or even stress. Games have the ability to transport you from your physical space into a world of its own where you are in full control of how you want to dictate your story going forward. This level of control also brings a sense of calmness.

Much like movies, games also cater to your sense of sound and sight, but they also cater to one more very special sense, which has the ability to immerse you further into a fictional world, the sense of touch. What do you think about it? Let us know in the comments below.
