4 ) The example of Report Text

Online games
Online games are a type of computer game that utilizes the internet network. This type of game can be
accessed by game lovers directly from the company's system via the internet network on computers, laptops, tablets,
or cell phones. In addition, online games can be played together with other game players (players/gamers) and
communicate directly between fellow players in the same game. Examples of online games that are currently most
in demand include Mobile Legend, Free Fire, PUBG, etc.
The emergence of online games as technological development in this modern era certainly needs to be
addressed with various positive and negative points of view according to its users. As a human being who accepts
change, there need to be limitations on the extent of the negative impact it causes.
 Negative & positive impact of online games on teenagers
One of the negative impacts caused by online games, namely: Causing an addictive effect, isolating
people from the life around them, making people lazy, health disorders, causing psychological problems
if you think too much, lacking sleep, etc.
 While the positive impacts are
Having more Friends, Reducing stress, Practicing patience, and agility.

Roy is one of the few people who have a hobby of playing games, he said that "not all games have a
negative impact, so it depends on each individual. And it is necessary to know that anything excessive is not good".
Meanwhile, M. Firmansyah has a different opinion, he is someone who can be said to be anti-game. He said that "a
lot of game users say that the game can refresh the brain, but if I think it's the opposite, so playing games can make
the brain tired, especially online games that can be said to be on the rise in this era. addiction and drain brain energy
for the user ".
So the main point, online games have many impacts on our lives, both positive and negative impacts,
although it can be said that it depends on the user. Approximately playing online games will bring more positive
impacts as long as it is done in a reasonable stage (knowing the limit when to stop). To avoid all the negative effects
you have to play games at a normal level.
