Hello everyone! Welcome to a new show I have planned for the channel in 2018, Psychology of Gaming. In this series, we take a look at various psychological principles and concepts and show how they are used within video games as well as how they effect us while playing video games.
In this first episode, I compare how the sensations associated with playing an incredible video game relate to a person's first experience using psychoactive drugs. I hope you enjoy. Be sure to leave your thoughts below.
