>Gaming skills don't translate to the real world and are thus meaningless
The only reason people say this is because we live in a world where being good at anything is considered "tryhard"

the real question is why subscribe to being a meta using faggot instead of playing your own way and finding your own style instead of listening to mr jewtuber #421

No it's because we live in a capitalist hellscape where the only thing people value is how VALUBLE you are to a corporation or company

>crowd gathers to point and call him a tryhard faggot
What planet are you living on OP. We live in a world where being good at shit that actually matters is valued and being good at bing bing wahooing is kinda gay.

Depends on the game. Problem solving strategy or deep analysis games, sure, that will probably help you in some fields, or at least prove you have the attention span and basic intellect to qualify. Oh you just research the meta and do that? Sorry, entry level at best. Fast twitch gamer reflexes? Sorry anon, you need a college degree to be a fighter pilot, you aren't even close to being fit enough anyway.

playing dota made me really good at mediating, teamplay, communication, giving polite but blunt feedback and strengthened my mental resilience to bullshit
nothing can tilt you more than retarded russians (redundant, i know), nothing irl comes even close

That job is going to be subsidized when there aren't enough people dying to maintain the mortician industry.
Do your country a favor and die immediately! The economy needs you!

At this point, being able to read a screen and navigate a menu with buttons seems like a skill a lot of people don't have.

That's only if you're a shitter. Gaming is 100% why I'm a master driver

REALITY CHECK: Unless you play professionally, your skills at videogame are inconsequential. Videogames are meant as an escape; something to have fun and relax to

my friend is a pilot and he said he learned almost everything he knows playing microsoft flight simulator. suck his balls, you fat bitch.

I mean, technically, you MUST have a sharper eye to hand reaction than normalfags and, depending on what you play, a moderate amount of multitasking.

If you play on PC then you must also know your way around a PC, which is always useful because the average normalfag has profound retardation when using one, given they even know how to turn it on, yes, they are THAT retarded when it comes to PC.
