quote:

On Wednesday, Dembélé got together with friends at his home in an upmarket area of the Catalan capital, and embarked on an evening of videogames. The group lost track of time and carried on playing late into the night - and when the forward finally went to sleep, he forgot to set his alarm for the following morning.

With Barça training scheduled for 11:00 CET, it was the club's matchday delegate, Carles Naval, who finally got hold of the 21-year-old at 11:30.


quote:

The upshot is that Dembélé is on his own in Barcelona, except for a troop of pals who spend hours and hours alongside him in marathon videogames sessions. This at least means that he is not out sampling the city's nightlife every day, but it is a state of affairs that is nonetheless problematic in its own way. Indeed, an obsession with computer games ('gaming disorder') is among the World Health Organization's list of addictions requiring professional treatment.

Does the article say it’s Fortnite?

It’s very well known that he is an avid FM player - which as others who have played it know, something like this happening is not surprising at all.

But would you play FM with friends? When I play FM, I put it on the second screen while I watch a movie. I still play FM 2012 though.

Lots of people do online FM where you can play with friends.

I don’t, but I also have no friends

Man I would hate that. I've been playing my massive save since 2013.

He has to be playing Fortnite. I've thought about playing, but all my friends are spread across the country, and none of they wives let them play video games anymore.
