The 'Stuff I Learned From Video Games' collection by ‘PaperBeatsScissors’ is motivational. If you are a video gamer then you may not have realized that beneath all the racing, fighting and super powers, are underlying subconscious messages (or so the artist believes).
These adorable animated cartoons based on gamer action figures and depict what can be learned from each pairing. For example, in the first picture with Mario it says, “You can face your problems, no matter how big they are." Considering that Mario is so tiny and is still able to defeat Bowser, that says a lot. The photo with Ash and Pikachu reads, “Our differences makes us stronger,” which is applicable to many relationships in our lives.
Oftentimes video games are overlooked as a silly and mindless waste of time; however, ‘PaperBeatsScissors’ has managed to prove that notion wrong with these gamer words of wisdom.
