Competitive video games also make me better at rapid decision making under pressure, prediction, (clear) communication and teamwork.
In the same way I could say that drawing and painting only makes you better at drawing and painting.
- ptero 10y agoDrawing and painting help you look at things differently; it improves motor skills (probably most important for young and old, but has some value for everyone), etc.

For years, I prefered playing video games to everything else. But now I'd rather see myself as a painter than a gamer. This is not a question of things being better or worse generally speaking. It's a question what's good for oneself.
- warcode 10y agoI agree. If I no longer had any enjoyment or feeling of improvement in gaming I'd probably find something else too.
