do feel de-sensitized to violence after videogames? (POLL)

[Nonnel]

I think that I've become desensitized to violent scenarios but not so much gore and things like that. Seeing a dead body would forget me up.

video games arent specifically to blame but they are a contributor

movies are often violent yet so careful not to show anything loveual

[Shift Kitty]

I'm definitely not de-sensitized to real violence, despite playing and being perfectly okay with violent video games and movies.

Though I'm sure everyone here is voting based on how they feel about videogames after playing videogames.

Ive never knew what to do with my emotions in the first place
I dont want to sound like some edge lord and the my name is not importand dude (i probably do but who cared) but I almost never know what emotion to display in what situation. Neither can I sympathize or really feel remorse. And when I do its all calculated and forced.
The only time I dont put a forced smile on my face is when I really enjoy myself and these are golden moments
Some people i know irl know this and they can instantly see theres something wrong with me. These are the people I never want to lose and the tought alone of losing them freightens me

I think there's a distinction between fictional and real violence. Games de-sensitized me to ficitonal violence and 4Chan de-sensitized me to the real thing.

i watched one too many mortal kombat videos when i was younger and yeah now im not really affected when its in-game or irl

[Taciturn]

I don't think it's because of video games. I've been desensitized by real gore like 1 lunatic 1 ice pick and stuff where real people were really killed

Now I live for moments like the prison cafeteria scene in Watchmen

The only thing I've de-sensitized to is swear words and not only after M rated video games, but videos and adult in real life saying those things. Uh gore, I can only stand the blood from source engine games and some other games from like GTA or something like that.
