This is a really interesting discussion, in that what you all are saying totally contradicts the research of Jayne Gackenback, which suggested that heavy gamers were significantly more likely to have lucid dreams than the general population and to exercise more control in dreams (of the ego dream character, rather than other dream characters or the environment. It's worth googling around for more on that.

I've also seen some posts by people saying that they started having lucid dreams after playing VR games for a while.
