We can gripe about the idea of video game addiction all we want, but the reality is that video games are designed to cause psychological influence on a structural level. That's why things like loot boxes, experience grinding, guilds, and many more features that are in so many major games. The World Health Organization classified video game addiction as an actual disease not to demonize video games, but to make sure people suffering from this condition can get proper help they need. The WHO classification allows for insurance coverage, research, and other avenues to get people the help they need.
