Top Ten Video Games That Have Been Blamed by the Mainstream Media for Being Harmful to Children
You and I may not agree with the accusations that the games on this list have received, but they were blamed by the mainstream media for one thing or another.
Tired of "Oh Grand Theft Auto and Fortnite and Call of Duty cause school shootings for having guns" but I don't see any biased news channel say Star wars or action movies/T.V. shows cause school shootings for having guns it
*sigh* Sensitive parents. Complaining about violence in a game that isn't even for kids.
This is why I think this is one of the worst video games of all time
Imagine getting triggered over a game that isn't even real.
Not as bad as Grand Theft Auto but still pretty bad
Blamed for: a large number of things, ranging from making kids violent to becoming addictive to kids
Also blamed for virginity, skipping school, and other games dying.
It's free but I'm not sure I will download it on my Switch
Blamed for: making people distracted while walking, causing them to walk into poles and off of cliffs and whatnot. It was blamed for a few other similar things as well.
I stopped playing it after some time in early 2017 because it drove me mad
Blamed for: encouraging gambling, microtransactions, lootboxes, pay-to-win gameplay, and other generally looked-down-upon business tactics.
Blamed for: being too violent when the series first came out. The series was one of the lead driving forces to create the ESRB rating system.
Blamed for: having a large amount of child molesters and predators, and having inappropriate games for children.
I really love Doki Doki Literature Club! But I must say I was a bit surprised ind this game when you know Monika kinda...Anyways it looks like a cute game so it kinda attracts smaller children (Even though there was a warning but okay)
There is: Blood Violence Suicide Cuss words and well jumpscares... But like I said I really love this game so I'm not trying to hate.
This is why I hate BBC News, and will always hate it until I die. No, scratch that; I LOATH BBC NEWS.
DDLC: Warning this game is not for children or those who are easily distur-
BBC News: AA
Blamed for: a teen's suicide
Well, I adore this game though, survival mode and creative mode are timeless classics, however, I will admit people love it for weird reasons (like servers and mods)
Blamed for: becoming too addictive for kids
I bet no kids even bought this game. Heck even know this game exists.
Blamed for: not having the features promised at launch
Blamed for people being too addictive and the microtranscations.
Should be blamed for making a cancerous fanbase alright.
This game is addictive and so many kids in southeast asia are addicted to this game and this game is blamed for breakups
