I like video games as much as anyone but there is certainly more value to real life experiences than simulations. It is something that dawns on you the older you get. Its not about not liking video games.
Is it though? I mean, both are based on what a person values, and you're using your opinion to judge what other people should value. If say a person derives zero value and has no interest in travelling and sight seeing but instead finds better value in gaming, why would the "real life" activity hold more value?
