Can FF games help reduce stress?

[Jim15]

Yes, it is a stress reliever for me because I enjoy plying it. The good thing is, I will not get tired in this and I will learn in playing.
But sometimes you can feel stress in this game when you cannot solve the quest you have and you can not kill very powerful monsters.

I have not seen the games reducing any form of stress. You can see that it can be good to take some stress off in the park or the places where there is more of nature. Apart from that I don't think there is any such option though. I would say some games are worth going forward there as well.

FF when I play puts me into a world outside of the world we live in. It takes my mind off of ever day life, every day stresses. Like any other game it can take stress off of you, but sometimes added stress is incurred but into the video game. It's non-real world stress. But nevertheless I do enjoy kicking back and playing FF for a few hours, still a great game to play, and I enjoy playing it when I want to go on my own adventure in the digital world.

Yeah, playing a good game is pretty much like reading a good book or seeing a good movie, we are just taken to this alternative world where we relax and enjoy ourselves doing what we love. So definitely yes, it's a big stress reliever to play FF, at least for me.

Definitely, for me it is a great way to be able to rest my mind and relax my body while playing FF because it keeps my mind occupied while cooling down my stress. As long as I am comfortable and enjoy playing it, I think I can say that it is the best stress reliever for me.

Final Fantasy really helps reduce my stress because there is no reality to it. Thinking about reality and respobsilities is a source of stress. Without that source we are able to relax and have fun.

It's interesting to see how the FF games are helping some users. I have never thought about FF games reducing much stress for the people. It seems like the stress can be relieved by playing those games. And on that note it'd be reasonable to play such games.

For me it does, because game can help me to focus on something besides on my problem in real life. It can help me to refresh my mind. Especially when the stress cant handle my brain anymore. I play some games to ease my mind because even i push hard to think what to do? as long my brain is tired i feel it's not the right thing to do for me to make a decision when i am stress. So games can handle some of my stress. Its cool.

I think any game can be a great stress reliever. As long as you enjoy playing that game and is having fun, that will surely remove your stress from a tiring work day. Final Fantasy has been and is always a very nice way of relieving my stress keeping us gamers always feel young at heart.

Yeah, games like Final Fantasy can reduce stress by keeping you too busy to think about your problems. They have beautiful scenery, a compelling storyline and the best music I've ever heard in a game. That music is enough to take all of your focus!

But it all depends on how you approach gaming. If you binge on games for several hours then you'll feel more stressed than usual. If you play for an hour or two a day then it won't be a problem. Similarly if you take every second of the game very seriously then your stress will get worse. This refers to the gamers who calculate every move in a game and grind every region to get the best possible score/time/rewards. I'm not saying that type of gaming is bad. I'm saying that it can stress a guy out.
