I think there's nuance. I play video games, typically a few hours on a Sunday afternoon and maybe say 2 hours the rest of the week. I'm in my 40s with a habit and a well paying full time job. For me video games is one way I like to way of unwind. There's lots of people in this world that play video games to excess and at the expense of other productive things. This is definitely a problem, as with any leisure activity overdone. I think it's unreasonable to think that healthy behavior involves constant hustle, bustle, and building. Life is indeed short and it gets a lot shorter when you're constantly go go go and you burn yourself out and have a heart attack in your early 40s because you never took in any R&R.
Personally, I can think of plenty of other ways to unwind that are far worse for body and mind.
