The main menu of Hitman: Blood Money taught me to sing "Ave Maria".

I've learned from "Planescape: Torment" that talking skulls are the best friends!

Health potions don't work in real life.

From a game you don't sell (still) i learned general skills to work on a car...From the sierra games i learned a lot of vocabulary when i was a kid (my native tongue is Spanish). I have you on FB and IG but i use different emails for that.

From fallout, and other post apocalyptic games, I learnt always to have spare batteries in the house... Oh! and I'm keeping the bottle cups from my refresh drinks in a big chest ;)

TYPING OF THE DEAD wuz suppozed to teech me how too spel perfiktly, and how too type liek a profeshunal, but it onlee taught me how to shoot zombees insted? Still, a yoosfull survival skil for tha upcoming zombee apokololips, I'm shure. Now eye jus need too find a keebord that fires boolets...

Delayed gratification. From just about any game that has powerful, one time use items. I learned to abstain from using these just for fun and to save them for when it really counts.

Above all, I have learned (from metroidvanias and souls-likes in general) that even when solutions to a problem seem straightforward, patience and analysis of different possibilities and approaches before committing to a particular one always pays off. Souls-likes in particular take this lesson a step further, forcing you instead of "deal just one more strike and its over" to "make x attacks, take a step back, and only then go for the final attack"... failing to do so often leads to unexpected defeats close to victory. This global principle is valid in many real-life aspects.

I learn that you could do something big just with you passion and ideas, not even the richest or the smartest count but the most creative ones put something special in this oversaturated market that we have nowdays.

Well, from Tropico 3 and Tropico 4 I learned, how politics work and what to do when people don`t like your politics!

PC Building Simulator taught me to plug in your PC to the wall first before starting it up.

I have learned to steal a lot of interesting things, like this very precious plastic bag almost not entirely torn apart I "took" to a helpless dude surprisingly more dirty than me, in order to get dressed.
Now I have the frail hope to live an other hour If my wound stops bleeding.

I need to leave you now, I saw a dogman and it seems we are both very hungry.

The original SimCity taught me so much about municipal planning, something I think about most days while wandering my neighbourhood (and exploring elsewhere).

I'm constantly thinking about the interdependent layouts of residential/commercial/industrial zones, and how they're connected via transport links, utilities, etc.

I really do think that my generation who grew up with SimCity got a really useful background in urban planning because of it.

If I can't get an achievement in the game, I have to delicate work to an optimal system to get it.
Such are the different experiences in the real-life of each person on earth, so I and anyone else can't avoid that path.
