StaceyPowers Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 What real-life skills have you learned playing video games? For me, it’s been social skills. I am terminally shy and sometimes have a hard time asserting what I want or need, but after enough RPG-style games, it’s easier to have imaginary dialogue options in my head and persist until I pass the imaginary speech-check when I deal with folks. I’ve also learned a lot about just how off my guesses are about which options will get which responses =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) Saving money is a skill I’ve helped to hone through playing a ton of RPGs. I’m terrible at just spending my money on knick-knacks, and games often remind me to save money for something more meaningful. Pretty nuts, right?

Yarik Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I have learned how to defuse a bomb, how to shoot with an AK-47, AWP, M4, tactic and combat skills from CS:GO. Just kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demon_skeith Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Final Fantasy taught me a lot about social skills, standing up for what you believe in and how to count in roman numerals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
