Actually, a lack of decent books and an increase in video games are causing humanity to [for lack of a better word] stupidify.

Yep, one Famous Author once said, something like,
'Each rising generations behavours are determined by the books they read in their youth.'
Something like that.

John Locke in his "Essay Concerning..." (I think that's it) said that people are shaped by their environment, and therefore, you read lotsa books, you get smarterer, and less prone to idiocy and the things you do if you're an idiot.

Only the newer ones with voice acting.

The older ones made you read and remember things.

John Locke's state of nature thesis, which influenced Jefferson and Madison while they drafted the Constitution.

No, FF was just Horrible Maria, admit it!

I wasn't talking about FF. Most Pre-Voice Acting games made you memorize things by reading them.
