People with an addictive personality will find an addiction, self control must be experienced and learned, and you can't blame a game for this.

this is utterly bullshit. Everybody can get addicted to something, this has nothing to do with the personality. The game changed them, they were never like this.

You have a very biased and immature mindset towards the situation tbh and I can't really waste any more time on this, but blaming the game for your friends not being nice to you anymore is just not realistic

it seems more like you are biased towards the game because you are defending it with false claims and calling me immature. An addiction can influence the personality but the personality cannot influence if a person developes one. Everybody is able to be addicted, some people are genetically just more likely to.
