For me video games mean working with other people to achieve a big goal. In my favorite game, Guild Wars 2, there isn't really a way to troll players because without others they have a few very big battles that without a group are impossible for someone alone to defeat.
When I was little, I remember Zelda and Mario games teaching me basic puzzle solving games. These days, playing games with others teaches me how to work in a group and that cooperation is key.
This being said, I've seen pretty good people become not nice when playing games, even going to the extremes of insulting their own friends. I this sense I believe that video games can be very negative to people. Games have ratings which should be stuck to by kids and reinforced by parents, this can prevent kids from taking the wrong things away from more violent video games .
p.s. I am so sorry I had a family thing pop up and posted this as quickly as I could
