The reason behind video game addiction:
When one finds a genre of his liking and starts playing a video game, he finds interest in it and escapes the reality of the real world. If he is a student, he will be tension-free from his studies and find peace in the game. If he is an adult, he will find video games as a source of escape and relief from his hectic day at work. Also, we know that when you win a level or any stage of a certain video game, you get rewarded so when you receive these rewards, a sense of achievement is created in your mind and your brain releases dopamine.
Dopamine is a hormone that is released from the brain when you experience a hyper-motivated situation as in video games. This hormone will increase your bodily movements and increase the level of tension and motivation to win more and more rewards. In this scenario, your brain will stick your body to the couch and you will keep playing video games for many hours without noticing. In this way, it becomes an addiction.

It is an old game as it was released back in 2013, 9 years ago from today but it is still loved by the players due to the adventure it offers. This game is also an award-winning game and that makes it more popular. It can be played on many platforms including iOS, Android, Microsoft Windows, and macOS. The most demanding weapon of this game is the arclight osrs.
What do you know about Arclight Osrs? It is a weapon that has very drastic effects on the enemies if used wisely. It reduces the attack energy of the opponent up to 50% and also affects the defending force of the enemy. This weapon was released in 2016, 3 years after the initial release of the game. It is non-tradable or stackable but can be equipped. The value of this weapon is 500 coins and its weight is 1.814 kg.
