Fortnite players are NOT addicted and are just 'motivated'
The World Health Organisation officially classifies gaming addiction as a disorder. The recent classification sought to address the growing use of digital technologies where people turn to electronic devices at the expense of other things such as work (or school), friendships and socializing. But evidence to support the idea that players are addicted to video games is lacking. Fortnite (pictured) has taken the world by storm. The International Game Developers Association (IGDA) strongly opposed the classification'as clearly prejudicial against gaming as a hobby and interest' and for a'broad' terminology.
