ExactName explores the Online Gaming World

"Failures in real life is like in video games, just try again."

The internet plays a lot of important roles in our lives today. Google Maps, Facebook (Meta), Twitter, Food Panda, Grab, G-cash, Pay Maya, and a lot of daily applications we use today use the internet. These apps improve our daily lives. Navigating becomes easier, ordering food is no longer a hassle, payments are quick and reliable, and you can now communicate with people thousands of kilometers away in less than a second. But for me, the internet introduced something that defines me today.

In the entertainment offered by the rise of the internet, online gaming has become a daily activity for me. I really enjoyed playing games so much that it has become an addiction. It introduced me to friends with the same interest, of whom some are still in contact with me to this day, even though we haven’t met personally. There are a lot of misconceptions about gaming, and most people think more about its bad effects than the benefits it gives. In my experience with gaming, it developed my skills and attitude at work and in real life. Playing action games, in which it is important to make good decisions, improved my ability to make a better choice in time constrained situations. Other than decision-making, it improved my mental fortitude in dealing with unexpected events. Gaming also helped me develop a multi-tasking ability. The internet and gaming really helped me in times of difficulty, especially in dealing with stress and failure, and made me who I am today.

Today, I am still trying to explore this vast world of digitalization by trying to be a content creator on different platforms. I have been trying to stream on YouTube and Twitch sometimes, and I hope it all goes well. 👊
