Basically, male teens in high school are refusing to go to regular schools because they would rather play videogames. So people have started opening "eSports" schools. These are places where boys are encouraged to play hours of video games. They are also apparently taught some basic skills and meet Japan's minimum curriculum requirements. In the article, they mention that many of the men show up late to class with no penalties. The teachers are just thankful that they are showing up.
Imagine how much standards are getting lowered for men. These men are growing up with no discipline, and these schools are a sad excuse for education. I think it's fair to say that the majority of these 'students' will grow up addicted to video games, instant gratification, and pornography.
Of course, they all want to be professional eSports players 🙄. I guess if they can make a living from video games, it's better than them being a burden on their families. But the majority of these boys won't make it big. The school says that it teaches skills like programming and graphic design. But it doesn't seem like these boys have the discipline to pursue a career in these fields if they can't show up to class on time. And video games hijack the reward pathways in the brain to make it difficult for boys to put in sustained effort when they don't see an immediate reward.
So many boys want careers in video game development, but so few of them actually want to work for it. I wont be surprised if, in a few years, video games are all made by brilliant female developers who actually have the talent and integrity.
And I refuse to pretend that playing video games ( E sPoRtS) is a valud career path. I mean, hobos sometimes get paid to fight each other, but does that mean that 'fighting hobo' is a job title? No. And neither is 'video game playing loser'.
Gee I wonder why the Japanese don't have sex.
Considering how strict and hardass Japanese schools havve historically been, it is laughable how lenient they are being with these boys. Sure, a few guys manage to be eSports players, but it’s a very limited market, and those that do have to put in a lot of time and play their cards right. Most of these boys will end up with no job skills, and being supported by their poor mothers.
Ppl say I’m arrogant but I always ask men why they choose me and what are they going to give me. If they say love then they can piss off. Because I know that they would never choose me out of love. They choose me because I’m either pretty or I‘m a great cook.
Also a video game developer can be a good career if they actually do something and get good grades with good ideas to create original games. I like the horror genre but unfortunately most men want things but hardly do it. there is always the wife behind the scenes who make them get off their ass. All by themselves men are lazy and useless.
And yet they would blame women for declining birth rate. Riddiculous.
eSports is such a lucrative career. Like, more lucrative than art. You need to have actual you-know talent/strategy/knowledge to make it far. But these boys probably think that just because they play, they're probably good. I know we dunk on video games often but if you look at the difference between videogames from the 90s and those released nowadays you can tell that a fuckton of work goes in to it. Work that these teens probably are not going to do.
A fucking VIDEO GAME SCHOOL and these no-tier jackoffs are still rolling up late. Unbelievable.
Karma for their war crimes against southeast asians (like my Filipino relatives who suffered in Bataan March that they deny happened 🤢), Koreans and Chinese (Nanking) in ww2. 😐
