I mean, I’d like to. Still, I’m not sure I’m buying this:
More than a decade ago, John C. Beck and Mitchell Wade, who now work at the consulting firm Accenture, surveyed 2,500 business professionals and concluded that people who played videogames as teenagers were better at business than people who didn’t. Their 2004 book “Got Game: How the Gamer Generation Is Reshaping Business Forever” found that videogame players were more likely to consider themselves experts, to want more pay for better performance and to see persistence as the secret to success.
Seeing as I’ve personally racked up an insane amount of time on, say, Skyrim – and I’m not exactly sure how the ability to crouch my way through a dungeon while pre-emptively shooting corpses that just look wrong will translate into a marketable skill. Although the mummified remains of an office complex would make for a heck of a dungeon. No, wait, that’s Fallout 4. So… yes, yes it does.
