It is a crime to beat someone down and take their shite. Whether it was a game, fueled by alcohol or drugs, racially motivated or whatever other reason/excuse. Throw their asses in prison for it no matter the motivation.
Right, that's the immediate thing to do; Is there something on a larger scale to influence the thinking of the people who believe that the game is so "fun" or "exciting" as to risk everything?

Have you ever seen a picture of a long term meth user? Why the frick would someone use meth having seen that?
People are going to do what people are going to do.
Programs in general designed to influence the thinking of people who do ignorant shite are destined to fail for the most part.

I'll play.
NO
If someone is willing to commit multiple felonies in the name of fun, there is no intervention you can do that will prevent them from engaging in that behavior.
People willing to engage in behaviors with significant permanent risk for a momentary superficial reward aren't going to be swayed by some pamphlet or series of lectures. They're going to act in the moment. Just ask Bobby Petrino.
To echo others, wtf do you care about motivation? It doesn't make the crime any more or less severe. Actions are all that matter.
