Original: Video games could make us better people

The piece challenges the common narrative that games encourage antisocial behaviour, adding to an ongoing debate among researchers, parents and the gaming industry about the real-world effects of playing.

Why now: The claim challenges widespread assumptions that gaming is harmful, sparking debate about its social benefits.
