I think they can depending on how you play the games and who plays them.
The only business sim games I play are Rollercoaster Tycoon and I have learned a few handy managment skills from playing it.
Yes they can.
Depends on simulation games,
Nasa has space simulations that are realistic and teach you the controls, if you take the air force’s flight simulater you’ll learn how to fly a plane.
If it’s just video game simulations it could help you in some ways you wouldn’t suspect, like in some of the tycoon games you learn basic manegement skills, in the sims you get to learn how to live on your own, and how to mangage bills and taxes
i feel yes!
did u see snakes on a plane? in that movie in the end a gamer lands the flight safely just because he played flight simulator and knows all the controls.(even though its a movie)
