I stopped taking any notice of that shit years ago. It's just ignorance...generally from the older people.
Gaming has become such big business and is now a primary source of entertainment for many many people. It's more popular that TV FFS.
The way I look at it...I'm not out anymore getting wankered and into scrapes. I'm at home...playing with my buddies and chilling. I'm a much happier person for it.
Plus...my wife's cool with it...means she can read her books...so everyone's a winner
